Here we go

  We have started on our journey. I hope to use this blog to share our adventures and any top tips we discover along the way. This is not going to be a fancy blog but just a way to document our trip of a lifetime!



My friend Aubrey who made it to the top this time
  We stayed a couple nights in St.George catching up with Matt's family and sadly we had to leave Zoey kitty behind for them to take care of her.  We did a couple of hikes in Zions before we left too. The first hike we did was Angel's landing. It was a very busy crowded day (don't do this hike on the weekend or during spring break!) The neat experience about this hike was when I randomly saw a friend of mine whom I had previously hiked this same hike with two years ago. Sadly two years ago she didn't make it to the top, past the part where you have to use chains on the narrow part to get up and I hiked the last bit by myself. This time I was able to see her make it all way to the top and conqueror her fears!  What are the odds that we would be there on the same day, it was fun to see her and her husband there.
The beginning of many selfies together


Top tips in St.George/ Zions
1. Hike the hidden canyon its our favorite
2. Eat at Zion Pizza & Noodle restaurant just outside of the park
3. If you are buying a day pass they usually last for a couple of days so plan to come back for more hikes
4. Cafe Rio started here and it is always so delicious!
