Katie and I got back from North Carolina on Sunday. Last night I finally had time to sit down and upload all my pictures and video. It took me quite awhile to get these .AVI files to play right in Windows Movie Maker on Vista, but after a lot of Googling I finally found the answer.

So as promised here is a quick 2-3 minute video with some footage from our trip followed by some pictures. We ended up doing a lot of hiking and site-seeing on Day 1, then went whitewater rafting on Day 2. I couldn’t bring the camera rafting with me though, so I don’t have any footage of that. My mom did bring one of those water cameras along, but I’m not sure when those pics will be developed.

This is why they call it the Smoky Mountains.

Katie and I inside a fireplace at the Grove Park Inn. You could fit a whole tree in there!
