Dream Trip 2008: February

Great Travel Moment

Lake Tahoe has been my family's vacation spot for years now. It's a beautiful place that I fell in love with instantly. Whether I'm there in the summer or in the winter, it has a calming effect on me that lasts for weeks. Here, I feel happy and content. This photo was taken overlooking the beautiful Emerald Bay from the top of Eagle Falls, right before we hiked down the trail to get to the beach. Every trip to Tahoe is absolutely amazing, but the time spent just hiking on the trails and enjoying the cool water on a warm day is always the highlight. The best part of this trip was being able to experience it with my friends for the first time, instead of my family. It was incredible.
