Since we have such a big honeymoon planned in a few months we decided that we would not take a long vacation after the wedding. Instead we decided to explore an area of Virginia that we have been admiring from a distance for the last 9 years. Everytime we drive to and from Tennessee we pass through Natural Bridge Virginia on route 81. This area is one of the most beautiful areas along route 81 and also the halfway point between our house in Pennsylvania and my grandmothers house in Tennessee. It is such a nice area that we have often joked about moving to this area so that we would be halfway between both locations.
These first few photos are the view that we see along the road on route 81 everytime we travel to and from Tennessee. The pictures do not do it justice it is a beautiful area.
One of the first places we visited during our stay in Natural Bridge were the caverns near the natural bridge. The pictures below are just a few of the pictures we took while underground.
Kurt pretending to fish in the undergound pond in the cavern. :)
Some of these rocks were so cool looking.....
Others looked..........well what do you think this looks like??
And these?? Kurt had some fun with this one LOL
Overall we really enjoyed the caverns. Even with the bats.
Our next stop in our journey was an antique toy museum but we didn't take many picture.
Afterwards we went to visit their butterfly habitat. Lots of pictures from this one. Kurt really liked the butterflies.
Finally we made our way down to the Natural Bridge to explore this beautiful area that God Created. It was a long hike down and then once you walk under the bridge there is a long trail that you can follow one way leads to a beautiful waterfall and the other way leads to a display from the indian tribes that were local to that area.
The Natural Bridge area is a beautiful area that everyone should visit.
Finally we stopped at this great little mexican resturant on our way out of town I loved their decorations. Especially the tables!!
