Day 1: April 25, 2016
Hello Las Vegas! The students arrived and what a GREAT group they are! We only got a glimpse of Vegas as we passed through town, but we will be back!
Our first stop today was the Lost City Museum with artifacts from the Pueblo Grande de Nevada archaeoligical site. The site also has a reconstructed Puebloan house that is open to visitors and as you can from the photos the students really enjoyed the hands-on exhibit.
We then traveled up a very scenic part of interstate 15 as it passes through the Virgin River Gorge ending in St George, Utah
After a wonderful Italian dinner we checked into our hotel and gathered together to do a watercolor class and paint our own Puebloan houses.
Then it's off to bed with a 6AM wake-up call in the morning. Tomorrow it's off to Zion National Park!
