A Day at Oak Glen

During the month of November, I went to Ellen and Craig's for a few weeks. We spent a day at Oak Glen, California. It is a place that focuses on their apples and apple harvest. We ate a nice lunch there and bought a huge apple pie.

We wandered around to see what was there. Craig was being silly throwing straw in the air. He told me to count to 3 for the picture and on 3 this is what I got.

We went to an apple stand to buy apples and tasted tested several different apples. We bought a bag to take home. Fresh apples are so delicious.

I had a fun day.

South America/Antarctic Cruise w/ Iguazu Falls

I am starting with the last tour ,and Cruise I have taken I travel most of the time with Marjorie Sargent. We left Salt Lake airport January 8, 2010 to LA,CA. Leaving there for Santiago, Chile, just a stop on to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. We arrived early afternoon. We sprnt the next two days there to to see the sights. The ones that stand out in my mine are the stone statue of Christ the Redeemer, and the ride to the top of Sugarloaf Mountian. spent our nights at JW Marriott resort.
Day 3 January 11 Flew to Iguazu it is between Brazil and Argentina, we saw it from both sides there are 275 falls in all , few waterfalls in the world can compare to the beatuy and majesty of the Iguazu Falls. We spent the night in the Panoramic Hotel Iguazu, on the Argentina side.
Some took a boat ride up the river to the falls I did not want to climb back up the hills, but I saw as much as the rest from where the guide took me and 4 other people. We saw some nose bears, a lot of butterflies.
Day 6 we will fly to Buenos Aires to board the ship.

Katherine and Desiree will be going home this morning it will be a sad day for me ,I will miss them. I will miss the night of playing games, I have enjoyed having them here, Alyssa also, she was here a few days. I am hoping for a longer stay next year.
