Day 6 A picture of somewhere I have been...

Over the course of my life I have had the opportunity to take a few vacations.  Some big and some small.  I love to travel and see new places.  I have been to the Redwood Forrest, Yosemite, Yellowstone.  I grew up on the beaches in southern California.  So here are a few pictures of my more long distance places I have been to.

At the age of 14 Jordan has been able to travel to Disneyland 3 times.  It is nice that it is close enough that you can make the drive in one day.  Our last trip was this last October and we went with my cousin and her kids.  It was an action filled vacation that they wont forget.

In the summer of 2004 we took a  trip with Jarom's whole family to Detroit.  I know you are thinking who vaca's in Detroit?  We do!  It was an awesome trip.  Out of ten days we only had 1 that we did nothing but sit at the pool.  We went to the zoo.  Took a tour of the Ford museum and Ford homes.  We drove to Ohio and went to Cedar Point.  Best amusement park I have EVER been to.  They had so many roller coasters you didn't know where to start.  We also drove to Niagara Falls for two days on this trip.

This is the Maid of the Mist.  It's a boat that takes you pretty dang close to the falls.  They even give you a poncho but it still doesn't keep you dry.

The falls at night are gorgeous!  On the weekends they even set off fireworks over them.  We spent all day there admiring the power and beauty of Niagara Falls.


Now last but not least a couple of my favorite trips.  I have been to Puerto Vallarta 3 times and Acapulco once.  I have some great memories from these trips. 

This is a small little bay where the movie Night of the Iguana was filmed.

This is a view from a small restaurant we have eaten at.  Puerto Vallarta was by far my most favorite.  Probably explains why I have been there three times.

This is the Mayan Palace, where we always stayed.  The service is amazing, and the views are beautiful.  Watching the sunset on the beach here is what I imagine heaven to be.

This is the coastline in Acapulco.  It is beautiful also, but a little too crowded.

You are not seeing things.  That is a man soaring in the air diving into the waters below.  THEY ARE CRAZY!!  The cliff divers are a very popular attraction.  The space and time frame they have is something I would never want to mess with.

So here are just a few places I have been.  I have been blessed to travel to the places I have been to.  I can only hope to add a few more places to my list.
