Starling Travel

I didn’t know it at the time, but the anniversary trip Mike and I took in August of 2013 was The Last Prius Campout. We camped at Wasatch State Park in Northern Utah and had I known it was our last campout with that car, I would have taken more pictures.

I was looking through photos the other day and I found the few that I took.

We had a great time on that campout and I wrote about it when I talked about camping fondue: Starling Travel – Camping Fondue

Right after this, we bought the Crosstrek and we have adored it, using it for all our camping trips ever since, but the Prius was a great car for camping and it pulled that tent trailer like a trooper.

Here are a couple more shots:

When we went to Legoland last year, I snapped some shots of the RVs that they had built in their Legoland towns.

If you would like to make some campers like this with Legos, they have made some sets:

• LEGO Friends 3184 Adventure Camper at Amazon.com
• LEGO City Town Car and Caravan 4435 at Amazon.com
• LEGO Friends Summer Caravan 41034 Building Set at Amazon.com
• LEGO Creator Volkswagen T1 Camper Van 10220 at Amazon.com
• LEGO City Great Vehicles 60057 Camper Van at Amazon.com

We might not be able to own the RV of our dreams, but we can build one from Legos!

I ran the Color Run in Las Vegas last weekend. While we were driving to pick up my race packet, the sunset was amazing.

I took this photo from the Boulder Highway near Flamingo. It was a beautiful evening and I just had to share it. Sometimes travel shocks us into joy because we see the same sunset that we would see at home with a different skyline.
