Arizona Trip 2024
I told you all in my previous blog post that I would share all my adventures from this past weekend with you on Instagram but I forgot the most obvious detail… this whole trip was a SURPRISE! Which meant I couldn’t really share where I was at until Saturday night (lol)
So I thought I would share about the short trip with you here!
The purpose of this whole trip was to surprise my aunt at her surprise birthday party hosted by a cousin of mine. I went with my close cousin and her family on Friday so we could have an extra day for some sight seeing on the historic Route 66, which I hadn’t seen in Kingman before.
During this trip, I learned that Kingman had a rich history: from the early settlement of the west, trade routes, wars (from Native American wars to WW2), and the routes this area offered to travelers near and far, Kingman has had it’s influence on modern history. I had even learned that Kingman is one of the cities that inspired Radiator Springs in the Disney Movie, Cars.
It was so great to learn some history and enjoy some sign seeing before the party.
Saturday night came around after our adventure to downtown and various shops.
My aunt was completely surprised, she was shaking from shock and excitement! She had no idea my cousin had been planning this for her! Check out the video clip from the party - VVV
The last day we were there, We went out to breakfast and when we left the restaurant, it started snowing again! Not a lot but enough for me to get excited about seeing the melting snowflakes before they became puddles on the ground.
It was such a great little trip to get away to a new area and see family. I look forward to the future girls trips to this small town.
I hope you enjoyed this little summary of my trip, If you need recommendations for this small town, I’m happy to share!
Ask me more about it during your next visit and stay tuned for updates on this month’s adventures
