Onto Capitol Reef where we had 5 days to explore. Justin and I hadn’t really had time to explore this park in much depth during our honeymoon trip years ago, so we were excited to take advantage of what all the park had to offer.

The journey from Kodachrome Basin State Park was quite the trip! What we thought would be a 1.5 hour drive to our next location turned into more than a 3 hour drive which included climbing to nearly 10,000 ft. We finally arrived in a cute little town named Torrey.

We explored the wonderful Kodachrome Basin State Park for 4 days…the longest stay on our trip thus far. We hiked, Justin biked, we ooed, we ahhed.

We ended up staying in Bryce Canyon for 2 days in frigid temperatures. The rocks are just so spectacular they almost look like someone painted them orange! We hiked, we biked, we explored and our 2 girls became official Jr Rangers of the park.

After B, b, b, Boise, Boise (to the beat of Poison, Bell Biv DeVoe; this is what our soundtrack has been while were passing through the big B), we headed into Twin Falls, Idaho. Here we extended our stay from one to two nights to give the girls some down time.

We spent 4 nights outside of Boise (at the Boise / Meridian KOA). I wasn’t expecting to like Boise. I had been to Boise once before, years ago, for work, and remember it as suburban sprawl. However, I had never been downtown. We spent each of our 3 days doing different things downtown and quite enjoyed the city. Here’s how we spent our 3 days.
