Royal Gorge

Today we were at the Royal Gorge down in Canon City, Colorado. They turned the bridge into part of an amusement park so we did not each pay the $25 to get it- how annoying. Instead we hiked on a nearby train so we could get a nice view.
This was the view down from where we were standing. It scares me just looking at the photo.
The entire "Petefish" family at the Royal Gorge. (Isn't Grace's hair super cute?! Good work, Kathryn.)
The bridge over the gorge. I won't lie and say I wasn't pleased that it cost so much money to drive across so we skipped that part. AMEN!
The highest suspension bridge in the world!

We also did whitewater rafting today on the Arkansas River. It was awesome. We had a waterproof camera that took actual film so we'll get that developed ASAP as we have some really cool photos. No one fell out into the river. YAY! The warm temperatures have caused a lot of snow melt so the river was raging. We had a great time and are completely exhausted!
