Day 4 ~ The Aquarium and Space Needle

We met Ward, Beth, James and Emily at the Aquarium for the day..

Then we went to Bubba Gumps for Dinner..

Then off to the Space Needle..

Ice cream before we departed for the condo.

Day 3 ~ Chairlift, mirror maze, shopping.

We went to Downtown Gatlinburg on Wednesday.

The boys took the chairlift to the top of the mountain.

Mom and I did a little shopping..

We also tried out the mirror maze.

We grilled out when we got back to the condo and the boys played in the pool and played a little ping pong.

Day 2 ~ Ramsey Cascades.

There are lots of pictures of dialup users beware..

Wow!!! This was an Awesome day. 8 mile hike to the see Ramsay Cascades.

Took us all day for this trek but it was well worth the views.

Its a 100 Foot waterfall at 2300 plus elevation. The hike was beautiful the stream meandered around the trail. We saw lots of new creatures and beautiful flowers.

Plus when we reached the top we found our letterbox. We where the first finders but to our dismay the stamp had disappeared and the logbook was waterlogged.
What is letterboxing you say check out Atlasquest.com

When we got to the top we had a snack and dipped our toes in the water wow it was cold..

I was really loud too..

There are lots of pictures to follow.
