yesterday we went on a bit of a disappointing hike, then we went to a hot springs pool for 2 minutes and then had to get out because of thunder. an hour later we gave up and came back to the house then, a little while later we went back to the pool and had a great time!!
July 12th, 2012 at 9:23 am Hi Marina, The weather can present such challenges to a day’s plans. IT’s wonderful that you’ve all learned to make the best of disappointing situations. You had a great time, in the end, and those are the times you’ll remember most. Our weather has been disappointing, too, because it’s been cold and rainy when we were expecting summer weather. We didn’t realize that Paris and Normandy were so far North that it’s still light out at 10:30 at night. But, every day brings new and interesting surprises. You'’ll be seeing such exciting places on the next leg of your journey that you’ll never forget having seen. Please keep blogging, because it makes us feel like we’re right there with you. xoxoxo
July 12th, 2012 at 7:30 pm Hi Marina, I was happy to see a new post from you. Things don’t always work out as planned, but there are often rainbows after the rain. It’s great you are having such a good time with your cousins. You also have a real treat in store for yourselves in the Grand Canyon. It will probably be quite hot, but it is wonderfully exciting to walk down the trails and hold your breath while the mules walk by so close to the edge. As I recall, there are two main trails, Bright Angel and another I forget. If you look closely at the canyon walls, you will see fossils. The colors across the canyon are spectacular. Take lots of water with you. We are excited as every day of your travels brings you one day closer to us. Lots of love and kisses.
