Vegas Day #2

 On day #2 we woke up early and made our way to the Hoover Dam  We took a tour of the inside of the dam it was awesome! Great grandpa and Erilyn could only go on the first part of the tour so he stayed with her so both Travis and i could do the whole tour. Our tour guide was really funny and told us to take all the dam pictures we wanted. :-D

This is a picture of the front of the dam if you look closely you can see  a vent  in the bottom right hand corner.


Erilyn with mommy right before she went with great grandpa so we could finish the tour.

Learning about the power plant.

The tunnel to the vent pictured above.

At the vent.

The view from the vent.

We thought this was funny.

The view from the top looking down.

A View of the bridge road they made to fix congestion on the dam.

Our tour guide told us that thereis a dam legend that if you put 10 fingers on the 10 toes of this statue it would bring you good luck so naturally we all had to try it out.

Checking out the power line stuff.

In to states at once.

Scaring mommy to death!!

Erilyn in 2 states at once.

She walked from the dam to the parking lot like this it was a good half mile at least.

After we drove over to the bridge they made to help with congestion you can walk on there we got to the top of the walk way to the bridge and this is what Erilyn looked like her sun screen and dirty hands didn't mix well. :-D

With Grandpa Troy on the bridge.

The view from the bridge looking down at the dam.

On the way home we stopped by taco time because they don't have any in Alaska and uncle Matt was craving it Erilyn liked it to.

After lunch we went swimming. We found this little pool perfect for erilyn to play in she loved it!......

Until she got cold. We ran in to the browns again when we were swimming once in the lazy  river then again in the hot tub  they were really distant and tried to stay away from people so we didnt talk to them we figured they just wanted to be "normal"
And finally later that night we saw Criss Angel he was creepy!!
