My first time camping and what a better place than Bear lake. Like a good Chilean the 11 am "leaving time " was more like 2 pm, so we drove my car with my 2 sisters, my son, my niece and lots and lots of goodies and unnecessarily things.People close to me know that I dislike driving due having only one good eye, so I drove until Logan and Vivi drove from Logan to Garden city. We rent a spot in a camping call KOA (very funny because in my country it is a slang word for the special language that the people in jail use lol) Everything was a challenge in this trip,"moritas " travel it is not an easy travel but of course a fun one. Tarek got sick between Logan and Garden city so we had to stop a couple of times for him to throw up :) in our return we solved the problem with a sick motion medicine. Fixing the tents was just so fun, not so complicated that I was expecting, hailee helped to set up the tents and Tarek just observed his aunts doing the work. I brought a charcoal grill and the meals were plan on this but on my surprise charcoal was banned to use on the camping due the fires on the area, so meals were very tricky to make. We got ready to swim and next challenge was found the lake LOL! we drove for hours north and south looking for the lake but by our surprise again the water had take the shores so was impossible to get access to the lake on the town :( so we went to the Marine to enjoyed the sunset and feed the fishes. Went it got dark Tarek continue saying "Go Home" and I new the next challenge was coming "Get Tarek inside the tent" but nothing that the personal DVD and a good movie couldn't achieved. The next 7 hours were very LONG, I thought it will be hot so I did not bring a sleeping bags just a few covers "wrong" we were freezing the whole night, thank goodness for Tarek ware wolf body that keep us kind of warm during the night. Next mistake not bringing a "Mattress" just Pads, I'm not sure if I'm too Old to camp but I keep turning all night to find comfort and stop my shoulder to scream pain alert, I don't remember been happy before because it was 7am but I was Lol! Next day we did do our home work better, and after asking around we were able to find the lake a 30 minutes from Garden city passing the Idaho Border in the North Shore lake. Oh what a beautiful lake, turquoise water , soft white sand and miles of shallow water for the children. On that day I was name the official babysitter on the lake because my sisters prefer the Sun,so I assume my role with Honors and we had so much fun with the kids. The trip was short but sweet and I will return better prepared in 2 weeks.
Love Bear Lake! |
