We took our local family hiking to the next level today, with a 5 mile trek. We’ve done portions of this trail before, but never the whole loop. We were rewarded with awesome views, sore legs, and a sense of accomplishment.

Very fond memories of when Sue the T. rex so graciously welcomed visitors to The Discovery. We miss our visitors and we miss Sue! #stayhomefornevada
🏔 Great Basin National Park 🏔
.
Wow. This National Park is UNREAL. I had no idea what to expect, but it blew us away. The kids happily did a 4.1 mile hike with 2 alpine lakes and Bristlecone Pine Grove. Every step felt like a dream.

Have you ever visited Great Basin?

Why travel the world, when you can go to Las Vegas and see it all? 🤷🏻‍♀️😆 and if you’re going to see Vegas, there is no better way than in a helicopter 🚁 Swipe across for a glimpse into our sunset flight over the strip with iflypapillon #sponsored #iFlyPapillon
.
The kids will tell you this was their fave activity during our visit to the City and it’s super affordable! Prices start at $85 each for adults and $75 each for the kids! It was cheaper to do this than see the show we wanted to see 🙈 and we had free champagne 🥂They had me at ‘Free Champagne’ 😂
.
And yes, that’s an actual rollercoaster inside a hotel 😂 #onlyinvegas (our kids were not tall enough to ride this, but there is a pretty cool arcade right next to the entrance of this that will totally help you avoid meltdowns 🙈) More to come on visiting Las Vegas with kids! 👀

I recently found myself out in the middle of nowhere Nevada.  Couldn’t resist lighting up some buses and checking out some stars.  It’s damn dark out there! 🌚 ⁣
