Hey my lovelies,
If you've seen Spring Breakers, how many of y'all read that in James Franco's voice?
Last week was my spring break and it was a lot of fun. Now, I didn't go crazy and went to Cancun or Florida. Instead, I went to the Phoenix area and Vegas with family and friends. Most people are probably thinking, "You spent a week with your family and you didn't go crazy?!" Trust me, it takes practice..just kidding. Seriously, when you're having fun with your family, it's not as bad as everyone thinks.
For the first 2 days of spring break, we were in Phoenix to see Montezuma Castle, Tuzigoot, and go on the Desert Belle Boat Tour. It's an inside joke between the group on complaining on seeing rocks all the time. Basically, most of our trips consist on seeing rocks.
Montezuma Castle is basically a house in a way, nestled within a mountain. It apparently contains 45 rooms which we joked if we could rent it out...we could not. You unfortunately can't climb and go inside and please learn from my mistake of spritzing some perfume before heading to the trail. So many bees out there!
Tuzigoot was fun! You can go inside the ruins and take pictures. The view from the top is amazing! Don't worry, there are pictures! Yes, its rocks and ruins again but it's kind of amazing to see how people lived way back when.
The final destination in Phoenix was to Lake Saguaro and take a boat tour. I honestly was a little scared because I know I've ridden a boat before, I just couldn't remember the feeling. I didn't know if I was the type to get boat sick or lake sick or anything. Thankfully, for me and especially for the passengers on the lower deck, I was perfectly fine! I got a tan too! Win-win! It was so nice y'all. You can go rock diving/cliff diving, hiking, jet skiing, etc. I can't complain about the weather either, it was perfect! Not too hot for Phoenix.
Last minute trip addition was Vegas! The plan was to just stay the night, then it turned into a one day extension. We really didn't do much sightseeing except when we drove to Red Rock Canyon. Going there inspired me to try hiking...as soon as I invest in proper hiking shoes and clothes. Seriously, people were so fearless, they climbed almost to the top with no gear at all! Maybe they did but they looked like peas to me I just couldn't tell.
This spring break was definitely one to remember and I didn't spend so much...sort of. Hey, I didn't blow my check which is a miracle especially when you spend your last day at the outlets and you end up only buying one thing! Success!!!
Enjoy the pictures y'all!
