And boy oh boy did we go! Up a damn mountain!!!!! Ughhh. I wanted to go to Burg Eltz and hike around there, but noooo Mr. Craigory had to take us to Idar-Oberstein because it was said to be one of the best places to hike. About 140 miles of hiking trails, and we only did about 5 miles hahahahaha. It was so dang PAINFUL. Even going back down hurt. Craig had a humungo backpack on that had snacks, huge bottles of water, babies bottles/food/heated water, my camera. You name it, we had it in the backpack (not really, but you know what i mean). We rented one of those hiking backpacks you put your kiddos in. I wore it most of the way/ had her in it most of the time, and it SUCKED. Thankfully hubby put her in her moby and carried her for a bit to give me a break. I think that's what made the whole hike bad was because it was so painful on my shoulders, and it didn't help that the princess was leaning and putting all her weight on just one side -___- We decided to turn back around once we reached to the top where there was a nice big valley and noticed people DROVE up there to fly their kites. FML. lol. Ohhh and i swallowed a bug. I was trying to hack it up for a good min or two to the point where i almost threw up and my eyes were watering haha. We're going to the Burg Eltz tomorrow. Can't wait for that one. At least we know there is something to look forward to at the end of the hike...A nice pretty castle =)
Here are some pics of todays lovely adventure. Taken with the handy dandy iPhone...
I took this pic because i was sad knowing i had to go UP this thing on our way back LOL.
Aubrey chilling in her carrier at one of our rest stops. Oh sweet princess of mine, mommie carried you on her back up a mountain...you will pay me back when i am old. I want you to push me up a mountain in my wheelchair <3
