Disneyland and Universal Studios California

September 14-18, 2009

We had a great time seeing Mickey, Minnie and the whole gang! We visited Disneyland, Universal Studios and spent our last day at Long Beach. It was especially exciting because we had two scholarship recipients on the trip that had never been on a plane and had never seen the ocean before. Their eyes just lit up as they splashed around in the Pacific Ocean. It is moments like those that make our job a delight!

Bryce Canyon, Zion National Park and the Grand Canyon!

Utah and Arizona, August 17-21, 2009
During this trip, we got to see one of Utah’s most spectacular sights, the hoodoos! These are amazing pink pillar structures that are lined up one after another to create a very unique canyon. We camped in heated cabins just outside of Bryce Canyon National Park where we enjoyed nightly cookouts by the fire, s’mores and beautiful sunsets. After seeing Bryce we drove through the narrow roads at Zion National Park which had quite a different look with enormous round rock structures. At Zion we also went to the theater just outside of the park and saw an IMAX film on the parks in the area. And finally we made the drive out to the north rim of the Grand Canyon which was well worth it. The views were spectacular and endless.
