Spring Break day 2, Lake Powell and Lees Ferry

We got up and headed to Lake Powell! We stopped first at the visitors center. The kids picked up their Jr Ranger books to work on. Mike got to see the Rainbow Bridge...in a picture. Out of all the years we have been to Lake Powell Mike has yet to see the Rainbow Bridge. This might be as close as he ever gets! Then we headed over to Lone Rock beach. We were able to drive right down to the water. That was a little scary we didn't get stuck in the sand, but several others did while we were there. We spent a good portion of the day here paddle boarding and playing in the sand.  Then we took a drive down to Lee's Ferry and the Navajo Bridge.

Lake Powell 2023

We found ourselves in Lake Powell for Fall Break! We haven't been in a couple of years, so we were all excited to go. We had several firsts, we went to Page AZ, I've never been to that side of the lake, we also stayed in a house, instead of camping, which we have never done before. All who wanted to, got to try wake surfing, another first! I have to say doing Lake Powell like this was awesome! I loved being able to shower at the end of the day, not sleeping in a sweltering tent was also pretty great, and eating dinner that isn't sandy, very nice! We spent every second in the water, and some of us hiked Lower Antelope canyon, while others fished. We took a little walk to Horseshoe Bend, and stopped off to see the Dam.
We couldn't have asked for better weather, it was a perfect trip!
