Bryce 2012

The highlight of April was our brief trip to Bryce Canyon during spring break. We stayed in a great cabin just outside of Bryce and one of the best features was the on-site playground.





We were lucky enough to have beautiful sunny days but it was chilly so the first morning we were in fill winter garb to start exploring the park. This was the first trip to a national park for the kids so we started with the visitor center and gift shop, then onto the trails to take in the beauty of Bryce.







On our second day we did a short hike to a cave and a waterfall. Rachel learned how to read the trail map at the trail head and she was excited to find the cave and waterfall just where they were supposed to be!


A favorite activity - throwing rocks into the water.




For our trip home we decided to take the scenic route. There were many scenic overlooks to stop at, each more breath-taking than the last. What a beautiful state Utah is!
