Mothers Day in Luray

For Mothers Day weekend, we took a tiny family trip out to the Shenandoah Valley in western Virginia. We left Saturday after soccer and drove west to Harrisonburg where we explored the town before grabbing dinner and heading to our hotel.

In the morning, we enjoyed the hotel buffet and the hotel pool before heading out. We drove by a pretty awesome looking playground, so we let Bria run around like crazy for about an hour.

 Then we navigated some of the most beautiful country roads (crossing the Shenandoah River-- you can bet we were all belting John Denver) to arrive in Luray. We went on the tour of the Luray caverns. I was a total sucker for all our guides jokes and just soaked up all the information about the amazing stalactites and stalagmites. Virginia had very heavy rains for about three days before we visited, so the caves were very wet, dripping all over us, with puddles everywhere. We just tried not to think about how deep we were underground.
