Trip to Vancouver, Days 9 and 10


We left Kris's house about 8:00am Tuesday morning. We promised the girls we'd stop at Krispy Kreme before we left town, so we made a quick stop. We met a family visiting from Blackfoot! Weird. Anyway, after filling up on sugar and fat, we hit the road. We made our traditional first stop in The Dalles, OR to get our last taste of Burgerville.


Not the most attractive pictures, but it is what it is. We pulled in to Boise around 5:00 or 6:00 and went straight to Buffalo Wild Wings for 40 cent wing night. After stuffing ourselves yet again, we stayed over at the Red Lion downtown with a Priceline deal of $55. We swam in the outdoor pool and watched a little TV, but we were really tired. We were so tired that we slept in until about 10 and didn't leave the hotel until 11:30 Wednesday morning! Since it was already lunch time, we drove downtown to Guido's New York style pizza place on 5th street in Boise. We've been there probably 4 times in the past and we LOVE it! We each ate a slice, then ordered a whole pizza for dinner later.We stopped at the Boise factory outlet stores for some brief browsing, bought some chocolate and some sunglasses for Landon and me, then hit the road for Rexburg. We pulled in to Rexburg around 6:00! We had such a fun trip! Hope we have enough cash to do it again next year!!! (After we got home we tallied up how much we spent on gas alone...drumroll...$531!! Yikes! We need a new vehicle for the next trip!)

Just think--if you come to Vernal you will save so much on gas! You guys would have a blast with all of the outdoor stuff there is to do.
