Gatlinburg Trip

So not last weekend but the weekend before Jared and I went to to Gatlinburg, TN. It was my anniversary present to Jared (which was back in July). I don't know if you have every been to Gatlinburg before but it's very touristy. They have a little strip with shops and restaurants that Jared and I weren't very interested in because they were very commercial. It was still fun to get out and see a new place, but next time we will definitely get a cabin way up in the mountains. However, the whole reason we were there was to go whitewater rafting. We drove 2 hours further West to Oconee, TN where apparently they have the most popular river to go rafting on? Anyway it was a blast and I definitely want to do it again! I was scared at first because our rafting instructor only had around 5 teeth, but I began to trust him. "You're here to raft not swim" - that sentenced had me sold. He also made up numbers like "There are around 5,327 rocks in this river and you don't need to hit any of em." I thought he was hilarious. Of course I didn't take any pictures of the rafting trip, but I did manage to snap a couple...

Our last meal (breakfast) before we headed back home :(

All in all I think we had a great trip!
