What Happens In Vegas...

ENDS UP ON MY BLOG! I could not have asked for a better day to wrap up my trip to Utah. Jill and I had a blast!! We drove to Vegas with lots of laughs and some bad singing. (I sounded like a frog thanks to my allergies... even though Utah was beautiful, I'l be grateful when I get back to the Caribbean and my nose stops running.) When we got to Vegas we did a little shopping, ate some delicious food, snapped some pictures and headed off to see Cirque du Soleil's show Mystere. Here's a few pictures from our visit to the strip. 

The show was great, and we couldn't have ended the week any better. I'm home now - safe and sound - but I sure do miss the girls! Thanks, Jill, for having me and showing me a great time! I can't wait to see you all again!

Getting Lost On Purpose...

So Jill and I thought it would be a blast to go through the 11 acre corn maze just outside the city limits of St. George. It was definitely an experience. Here's a picture of me at the beginning of the maze all confident...

The maze was a blast because I was with great company, but I  definitely wouldn't recommend the corn maze for anyone else! There had been a storm the night before and A LOT of the corn had been blown down. That meant that we were running through a jungle of corn and getting smacked in the face with corn when the stalks snapped back from the person in front of us.  To top it off, it was just plain hot! Anyway, thirty minutes later we made our way out of the corn with it stuck in our hair and itching like crazy. We decided it was time for a nice steak dinner after our hard work in the corn maze. Here's a few pictures from the rest of our trip.

 We kind of got turned around! Turns out we are both terrible with directions!

Jill and I at the end of the maze - tired but still smiling!

I've been converted!

Haha... just kidding. But I did ride on the Mormon Battalion float in the parade yesterday morning. Here's a link to an article about the Mormon Battalion if you are interested http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mormon_Battalion. They were the only religious unit in American military history. Anyway, the parade was super fun. We rode in a covered wagon pulled by a team of horses, and we got to throw candy at the children... err, to the children. Whichever! Did I mention that visiting Jill rocks?!?!

Zion isn't ready for this!

Today Jill and I took a trip to Zion National Park. It was gorgeous!!! Here's one of the zillion pictures I took of the scenery. It really doesn't do it justice, but it'll give you a taste of what it was like.

This picture was taken at the top of Overlook Canyon. It was a neat little hike, and the view is awesome. 

We had so much fun today, and I am so glad we got the opportunity to go. Jill is a wonderful tour guide by the way. :) More to come in the following days!

Visiting Jilly Bean!

Well, as many of you know, I'm in UTAH! I am having the time of my life with Jill as she shows me around the wild west! Anyway, just wanted to let everyone know that I made it safely... here's a picture that proves it all. I'll update again soon when I have some more pictures. Yeehaw!

Which Disney Princess Are You?

You Are Aurora! (A.K.A. Sleeping Beauty.)

Thoughtful and loving. Authority figures probably have been sheltering you all of your life. Thankfully you're a very tranquil person who is content with what life has given you, but secretly you want to know how the outside world works.
