Girl's Weekend- St. George

 One of my friend's from my neighborhood, Christine, wanted to do a weekend in St. George, where she has a house, for her birthday. She is one of my hiking friends and Christa, another woman who usually comes on the hikes as well, also came. So it was just the three of us! And we had a great weekend with a lot of laughs and adventures packed in! 

Hot tubbing first thing in the morning and then breakfast



Then we went on a hike and explored lava tubes and got off trail and ended up hiking through the sand and that part was a bit rough haha





















Then we relaxed at the pool and all was right in the world



Then we got donuts and got sushi and celebrated a little bit the birthday girl




The next day we looked at some of the shops on main street and I found the store that is selling the girls' prints from when I went to Ethiopia!  It was surreal to stumble upon! 

Then more pool time haha

Then we got some amazing greek food and headed out on an evening hike. And yes, it's a long story but we ended up matching (well close enough so they made me buy black shorts haha) I said we looked like bees



The hike was beautiful! Started out through green trees and red dirt and then lead onto white washed rocks and onto "candy mountain" which is a stripped rocky little mountain area and it was amazing!








I decided to bring my actual camera this time and I was so happy I did. The sunset was UNREAL.













One other woman showed up and took this photo of us, which was so kind! 

Otherwise, we had the whole place to ourselves! 









We hiked back in the moonlight


And then we did some late night hot tubbing and ukulele playing around the fire


And then.... some more ukulele in the morning. :) We also celebrated Christine's birthday that day! 

And at the restaurant they gifted her a purse that had a mirror in it and it was so random we laughed so hard and it was the best ending to a fun weekend!
