Fall Break 2018 - Day 4: Final Activities

We spent the rest of the time that we had left playing games.  The kids liked the pumpkin mini golf and the bouncy houses.  Allie didn't want to do the bouncy houses so I took her to color another picture and make an airplane.
After Megan was done in the bouncy houses we went to check out the goodies and while walking around we found Snoopy.  Allie didn't want to take a picture with Snoopy so only Megan got one with him.
Margie bought us all some popcorn to eat while on the train ride back and Tony and I got some peanut butter fudge.
We all used the bathroom and got ready for the train to take us back to the main station.  It was a perfect amount of time for the kids to do everything they wanted at least once if not multiple times.  It was a super fun pumpkin batch and I think everyone had a great time.
After our train ride back we decided to get some lunch.  We found a Mexican restaurant and decided to try it out.  It was a little different, but good enough.  After lunch we drove around Durango to see the town.  We stopped and walked down a street with different shops.  We found a fun t-shirt place where we all got cute shirts, so that was fun.
After walking around we decided to go back to Cortez and check out that town more.  The three older kids and Tony went out into the field by the hotel and played with the boy's boomerangs and Josh's rubber band gun. Allie had fallen asleep in the car and was still sleeping so I stayed in our room with the door open so that I could watch her and the other kids.
It was a beautiful day and it was so nice to just relax at the hotel for a while.  After the kids were done in the field they came back to play tablets and relax while Margie and I went to Walmart and for a drive around town to see what they had.
We found at least three dispensaries and different shops and such, but nothing super awesome.  We did stop at a Native American shop that had a museum in the basement.  That was kind of interesting.
After that we went back to the hotel to get the others and go to dinner.  We went to a family dinning place that was pretty busy with what appeared to be a lot of Utahans coming back from Fall Break.  It was pretty funny.  The food was good and we had a good time.
After dinner it was swimming pool time.  I went in this time, but not for very long.  Their were tons of kids in the pool and so that made it less fun.  So Allie and I went up to the room to get ready for bed and then the others followed after.  It was the perfect activity for our last night in Cortez.
