| Picnic by the Chattahoochee River after tubing |
Michael is visiting from France...so we've been trying to show him a little bit of Georgia, and share some American experiences.
Tubing! in Helen. Everyone had fun. We went at the best time possible. That's after some rain -always better to go tubing when there is enough water in the river-, middle of the week and after school starts (no crowd).
We love nature, we love the outdoors, and we're already in Helen, Georgia, what better place to go but...(you guessed right!)
Anna Ruby Falls, a short drive away.
Wow! This is just majestic if you haven't seen the Anna Ruby Falls before. The falls are located in the Chattahoochee National Forest.
Everyone looks happy and that makes me happy too. The walk up to the Falls was fairly short and beautiful. Even our young Parisian loved it. He is a relative, but he fits right in as if he was my daughters' brother.
As you walk up to the Falls, you'll hear the soothing sound of the river. Always sweet to be surrounded by the beauties of nature. We soaked it all in. Rejuvenating!
After a few hours on the river, tubing, it was nice to hike up the mountain (short hike of about 20 minutes) and enjoy the lush greenery.
Unicoi State State Parks is close by. You even drive through it to reach the Falls. Wouldn't be nice to camp there for a couple of nights and enjoy this place longer? Frankly, I wanted to stay longer and see all the birds I could hear...
Time to go home now.
