Last night’s sunset safari was one of the most thrilling experiences of my life. I pictured a calm, relaxing and romantic drive through the desert, with excellent sunset views, strawberries and champagne. Well, I couldn’t have been more wrong if I tried! Let’s just say we drove around for three hours, but there was no actual road in sight!! We drove up and down on huge rocks, and I mean up and down. It didn’t even seem possible, but the car took us up almost straight mountain sides, and down the same way. Here’s the easy start to the trip.. Oh yes, he drove us in the biggest car I’ve ever seen, straight up this rock, which to be honest I would’ve had problems climbing with my own two feet (it was way steeper than it looks)..
At one point, the driver put his foot on the gas pedal on the top of a huge rock, and the car flew through the air before we landed with a bang. I think you probably could’ve heard my screams all the way home in Norway…
The desert in Moab is filled with real dinosaur footprints, which are between 160 and 180 million years old!! This is real, I kid you not..
Gorgeous views over Colorado River, which is where we rafted earlier in the day.. I seriously thought the rafting would be the scary part, and the sunset safari would be a piece of cake. It was totally the other way around! I’ll tell you more about the rafting later by the way, I managed to make the biggest ass out of myself ever! I’m still extremely embarrassed, hah.
Another one of the rocks we drove on.. This was one of the easiest ones, I couldn’t even hold my camera on most of them, it was way too scary!
It annoys me so much that the rocks doesn’t look as steep on the pictures as they were in real life. You can check out this video of people driving down the same rocks that we did (they survived FYI).
With my favorite people.. Normally I don’t like to share pictures of my family, but I love this photo too much not to share it.
My sis in the sunset..
Ah, what a day! I’m so glad I have these pictures, even though I know I won’t forget this day ever. I hope you don’t mind these touristy posts by the way, this is a fashion blog after all. I just think it’s so fun to share my experiences with you guys! As I mentioned earlier, Moab has really stolen my heart. I can’t recommend a visit here enough! If you’re ever here, you seriously have to do this sunset safari. Ask for Craig, our driver, one of the coolest guys I’ve ever met.
I hope you’re all enjoying summer as much as I am, where ever you might be in the world♥

Hi Cath! The pictures look gorgeous and the safari sounds really cool! However, on your new site the link to the youtube video doesn’t seem to work anymore and I was wondering with wich company and where exactly you did the safari trip? A trip to the USA is planned in two weeks for which I would love to know the details!

We went with Moab Adventure Center. If you want to do the same thing, you MUST ask for Craig. He was such a nice, fun and talented guy who taught us so much :)
