Idaho City

We had so much fun in Idaho!  We took a lot more pictures than this, but this is all that I have on my camera.  We went to an awesome spot that Annabelle showed us on a river really close to the Hope's house in Idaho City.  Henri was super brave because the water was really cold.  He was much braver than Charles who "doesn't like cold water."

 This is how James experienced most of our adventures!

 Idaho City has an old cemetery that we like to visit.  I know, it is weird to like cemeteries, but this one is really cool with it's old headstones and the history behind it.  Idaho City first had a huge population of people from China who were digging for gold.  It is interesting to drive through the roads and look at the land because there are huge mounds everywhere that show how much earth these people moved to look for gold!  In the cemetery there is a Chinese section. a Catholic section, a Protestant section... Anyway, we like to go visit when we get a chance.
