The Biltmore House - Asheville, NC
This is the family home of George W. Vanderbilt. It was opened in 1895 and has 175,000 square feet inside the house! It even has a bowling alley, gymnasium and swimming pool inside.
The Biltmore Gardens are also very beautiful. It takes approximately two hours just to tour the gardens. There are several greenhouses. They even sell some of the flowers to the public.


This is one of the pathways in the garden. There are numerous spots to sit on a bench and enjoy the sights and smells of the garden.


Here are some of the orchids located in one of the greenhouses.
A visit to my cousin Gina's house!
Boy, did we have a fun time visiting Aunt Terry, Uncle Don and Cousin Gina! Gina has a really neat swing set in the backyard. She let me swing as much as I wanted! We visited their church together on Sunday and listened to the choir sing. Afterwards, we played outside in the backyard a bunch. We used a sled to slide down the side of the hill together! It was FUN!
We visited the Georgia Aquarium one day and saw a bunch of really BIG fish. It was a big place so I decided to take a nap somewhere in the middle (after lunch though). We also visited the Children's Museum which had all the Sesame Street stuff there! Gina and I had a lot of fun playing and learning on Sesame Street together.We even went fishing with Uncle Don! He caught a few tiny little fish, but nothing compared to the BIG one Gina and I caught! Uncle Don said the fish weren't biting like they usually do, but Gina and I didn't have any trouble catching the BIG fish...
