Saturday it is and the day to go visit Enchanged Rocks

We all got ready and headed out to Enchanted Rocks. The drive was beautiful, a different landscape, made me feel like I was in Arizona or I was driving from Sydney to Melbourne at times. It was fun, different feeling than in Dallas. 

As we started our drive, sun started to come out, was a bit warm but not too hot. We reached the ticket counter and I purchased the tickets. We were really hungry and we were not prepared to hike that trail which was only 0.76 miles up. I had high heels with wedges, I had carried a flat pair just in case. That was a wise thing I think, as I hasn't thought at all, I would be hiking in Austin. From the bottom of the trail, we could see people hiking up, they were tiny and scattered.I wished, I was prepared with workout clothes, shoes, bag pack with some water, snacks etc. 

As I was climbing up, I felt my feet started to get a bit sweaty and my flats felt a big slippery. When we climbed the steep side, I was worried about coming downstairs, with my right knee, which hasn't heeled. Overall, was fun to hike. As we reached up, the sun went down and it started to get windy a bit. 

We enjoyed the view, granite rocks, and then soon was time to get down. Nhas cha Bikash took turns to carry Nhuja, as it wasn't that easy, carrying him and hiking that that trail. I was saying to myself, I wish I took more pictures of the rocks, the nature.
