Sunset Crater Volcano - 11 October 2008

We haven't been here since before Jakob was born, but as we drove by we both remembered taking a picture in this meadow, which was filled with yellow flowers at the time.


It was so insanely windy that we could barely keep our eyes open (did we mention the 70mph gusts?). Anna thought it was great fun getting blown around the exposed paved trail. In fact she walked backwards most of the way back to the car. She's such a good sport. Notice how dirty she is from mulitple falls on the Veit Springs Trail! Jakob did NOT like the wind AT ALL (can you tell in the picture above?). Emma didn't express an opinion.
This trip was her first experience of wearing shoes though!


Just for kicks, here's a picture of our car (2005 Ford Freestyle) which did us proud on its first road trip.
