Hannah is so exited to be visiting Tonto Natural Bridge. The Tonto Natural Bridge is 183 feet tall. It is thought to be the biggest natural travertine (a type of limestone, that now people make tile out of) bridges in the world. Wow! Hannah enjoyed looking at all the cracks, crevices and caves. In 1877 between Pine and Payson, Arizona, David Gowin ended up at the bridge while being chased by Apaches. David hid in the caves for 3 days and 2 nights. After 3 days David explored the newly discovered valley and later claimed the squatters rights. Today it is a state park.
Welcome!
I saw this idea for making wooden dolls on Grace Lin's Pocket Pacy blog. I decided to make my own, because it looked fun. I am calling them passing dolls because if you are given one of my dolls I would like you to take them somewhere and then pass them on to someone else for another journey. If you are willing to share the journey on this blog, please take a picture of you and the doll on your trip and send it to passingdolls@gmail.com with a description and I will post it here on my blog. Thanks!

Hannah in Las Vegas
Hannah is so exited to explore Las Vegas! Here she is posing with the Las Vegas sign.
We made it!
Hannah and her friends look at this unusual hotel before going to eat lunch there. I hope she got to try some Egyptian food.
At M&M World, one of the M&Ms seems to take interest in Hannah. Hannah thinks Ms. Brown is pretty. I wonder if she picked up some mini M&M's before she went on her next adventure.

Minnie Miranda at Epcot
Minnie Miranda looks at the giant golf ball while she excitedly waits in line to get into Epcot. She is most exited to see the world show case and see places from all over the world!
Minnie Miranda watches two manatees play, at the finding Nemo displays. That looks like fun!
In London, Minnie sits in the phone booth and wonders if someone will call her.
Miranda browses the collection of camels and lamb skin lamps while exploring Morocco. Maybe she will purchase one. Minnie loves the unique and abstract look of the lamps.

Minnie Miranda dines at Be Our Guest
Be Our Guest Restaurant is a delicious experience.
It was a beautiful restaurant. It had a giant music box in the middle of the dining hall.
Minnie Miranda shared a turkey sandwich for lunch with her friends. The food was almost as beautiful as the restaurant.
The theme of the restaurant is Disney's Beauty and the Beast. It was decorated with statues and murals from Beauty and the Beast. Minnie Miranda thought it was just like being in the movie, except that there were no actual candelabra servers.
