Hoover Dam

In a few months my parents are coming for the new baby. We've been trying to plan fun activities to do with them while they visit and the best way to plan is to do them ourselves and make sure they're fun, right?

So we loaded the car and went to see the Hoover Dam and Lake Mead which aren't far from Las Vegas. We didn't want to do a tour so we looked for a place to park for free and just be able to go see it. Luckily they have a bridge that you can walk to see the dam and free parking! The walk up to the bridge wasn't bad and the bridge was nice. The only downside was that it was a bit windy but at least it wasn't cold.

It's an impressive site. I don't think I could do a tour because I'd get claustrophobic but just seeing the outside was awesome! Lake Mead was also super pretty. I had forgotten how big it is! One day we'll actually have to go down to the water when it isn't so windy. It should be a fun thing to go do when the baby comes in a few months.
