Smoky Mountain Beauty

More photos of the amazing and gorgeous Smoky Mountains.  We were suppose to check out of our cabin tomorrow by ten but are staying one more night instead of going to Georgia like we did on the way here.  North Carolina and the mountains is just so much more scenic and gorgeous than Georgia.  We couldn't resist.  Tomorrow one last day of hiking in the national park and enjoying the mountains, mother nature and all God's amazing creations.  Back to Florida on Sunday.  It has been an amazing trip, one of my favorites and we will be back in the Fall for sure=).

Today we did the tubing down the river which was two hours of riding the water.  Fun times, but didn't bring my camera and good decision considering we hit a few rough spots and one time I flipped.  Hurt myself pretty bad, but had a great day.  We took the kids to the go karts and arcade in town, then more sightseeing and adventuring.  Here they have tons of my flowers and my favorites hydrangeas, all over.  I took tons of pictures of them but only posting a couple, don't want to bore anyone lol.  Also a few more of the view from our porch of the amazing mountains.  I wish I never had to leave.  One day we will live here or have a cabin for our own.  When I set my mind to something I do what ever I can to make it happen and my husband is the same=).  Off to relax and enjoy the six head shower, we have here in this amazing cabin.

Happy snapping,

Melissa

Our view in the morning from our cabin.

Amazing view!

This view could never get old, and we see it every morning, afternoon and night.  This is where I was when I got my super moon photos.

My favorite flower, hydrangea.

Love the blue ones with yellow in center.

These are pink and purple, gorgeous.

I took so many photos and used different shutter speeds, settings and effects on my camera.  Can't wait to get home and use my photoshop and lightroom=).

Excited for vacation

Looking forward to our family vacation. This summer we are returning to the amazing Smoky Mountains:). Last summer we went to Tennessee and stayed in Pigeon Forge area, we had such an amazing time that when we started talking about this years summer vacation first place I told hubby was I wanted to go back to the mountains. Since we did Tennessee last year I decided I wanted to go to NC, originally last year I had been looking at NC. We ended up deciding on TN because my girls wanted to go to Dollywood and we loved it in Tennessee. I loved it so much wanted to move there but my hubby loves his job here so looks like for now we will be here in south Florida:).

North Carolina is gorgeous, I love the mountains, long winding roads, small town living and more. We are renting a cabin, it is the best way to go when visiting the mountains. We usually stay in hotels when we travel but the cabin is the best when going to the mountains. When we went to Tennessee we rented a cabin and it is worth every dime. I spent weeks looking for the perfect cabin. It is so hard to decide because they all look amazing online. After weeks of searching I came across the place we are staying and after reading the description I was sold:). It has amazing views from the wrap around porches and the huge windows in the main loving area:). Can't wait to sit on the porch at night taking in the mountain air. There will be a lot of photos coming soon. Looking forward to taking tons of photos of the views and mountains while we are there.

Planning to do the Smoky Mountain railroad while we are there and lots of hiking to the amazing waterfalls. I love going there because the Smoky Mountain National Park is amazing, it is huge and has tons of hiking trails to adventure on. Have any of my readers ever been to amazing Smoky Mountains? How about Bryson City, NC? I would love to hear suggestions of things to do and places to visit.
