Today we woke up before the crack of dawn, put on our swim suits and shorts, and headed out to go white water rafting!! I was so nervous about this, I has huge butterflies in my stomach the whole morning. After some office complications at the rafting place, we loaded a school bus that took us out to the Arkansas River. When we got to the river, I got even more nervous/excited/intimidated. It was not until we were in the boat on the water that I lost those feelings. White water rafting is SO FUN!! I loved the mystery of not knowing if the rapids were going to go under or over the boat. We were with a family who possibly had done this before, they wanted to go all out (like flip the boat). I was not so keen on this...but we did it about half way down our 9 mile trip and I actually enjoyed it!!! This is by far the best venture I have ever been on! I would go again in a heartbeat!
We then went to Buckskin Joes Frontier Town to check out the old city and take the train ride up to a look out point for the Royal Gorge! Very cool place!! We even got out Old Time Photo taken as outlaws breaking free from jail!!
After that train ride, I really felt the need to actually be on the suspension bridge over the Royal Gorge!! So we did it!! We paid the money and enjoyed ourselves some Aerial Tram, walking the bridge, and Jess and I did the incline plain!!
God's land out here is so beautiful and majestic!!
Love ya'll
