DAY 2: Who doesn't like to start their morning off by having silly face photo shoot? Apparently Jason and Owen woke up very happy. It was a little overcast in the morning so we decided to go to Snow Canyon(the hotel was right at the mouth of the canyon).
First we drove to Tuacahn Amphitheater. The musicals started the day after we left. I was a little bummed, especially since they are doing Footloose. On our way we saw this snake in the road. Owen liked it. Unfortunately, the car coming down the other lane ran over it right as we were watching. He slithered out of the road and Owen said he was going to the doctor. It was cute.
Sand dunes in the canyon. Owen could have been entertained there all day long.
We like climbing the red rocks. Owen loves the movie Shrek and he kept saying, "I like that boulder. That is a nice boulder"(Donkey asys it to Shrek). It was so funny!
He wasn't scared climbing on rocks and mountains, but the stump that was only 2 feet off the ground was a little too much for him.
After we spent the morning exploring the canyon, Owen and Jason took a nap in the room and I went and laid out by the pool waiting for my appointment for my Chocolate Peppermint Scrub pedicure at the spa. It was my first time having a real spa pedicure(pedicures in the mall do not count). It was fantastic!
When I was done with my pedicure Owen and Jas were at the pool. The pool was a little small, but the section Jas and Owen are in was only 2 feet deep, so it was perfect for Owen and he loved it.
Everytime he got out of the pool he watched his suit drip and would take steps so he could watch it drip some more. We learned that Owen's skills in the pool are limited. Everytime he fell in he would fall forward, feet still on the bottom of the pool, bent at the waist with his face in the water. You would think your natural instinct would be to stand up straight...not Owen, he just stayed face down in the water. This happened more than once and he never got his face out of the water on his own. Guess we need to get him in swim lessons.
It was a fun pool! They also had a full basketball court, sand volleyball court and lots of tennis courts. A great place for a family vacation.
