Day two at Zion started with an amazing drive into the park, a little by mistake. We drove in and went past the 1 mile tunnel to see some amazing views and stunning scenery. It's not where we were planning on going, so we had to turn around that big SUV and get back down the mountain to the shuttle bus. We need to goto the "Narrows" We rented special water shoes, because this hike is going down a river canyon. You get the water socks and shoes and a hiking s...

We left Vegas this morning and headed into Utah! A few hours on the highway, and we were able to make it into the National Park. We got our National Park Pass and started to the hiking trails! We selected shuttle stop number five, which was where the Lodge is located, and also the Emerald Pool trail. There is a bit of a waterfall, and covered trails that was amazing to view. We saw Deer and even a lizard as we went through, and took our time due to the heat ...

Excellent fun, kids got a bunch of their energy out there. It's a good children's museum, and everyone found something to do. From there we jum...

New Orleans; So we made it to our most southern point, we're pretty sure. The beach is just too darn far, and we've been driving way too long. OK, so as we pulled into New Orleans, our crazy GPS took us into a neighborhood that was 'literally' the wrong side of the tracks. Here is this family of five going down a few streets that made us incredibly nervous, but low and behold we were able to come back across the tracks and into the New Orleans KOA. Its a cut...
