yoga in the tetons

This past few weeks I was away for a family wedding and it happened to be set in a beautiful area of the Grand Tetons national park, Wyoming.  I eagerly packed my yoga mat in anticipation of the yoga I would be doing.  The beginning of the trip found a new use for my mat; due to a very long delay, we ended up overnight-ing in Toronto airport.  No need for an airport hotel for me!  Behind the check in desks as 1am there I was, yoga mat out, sleeping bag out and union jack pillow to hand and I was sorted!  We woke to the staff climbing over us to open up check in! 

Once we had arrived, we were staying at a beautiful campground with a backdrop of the grand teton mountains.  I woke eagerly the next day and took my mat over to a secluded spot and spent a good hour going through all the various poses that I have been learning.  I was so relaxed that I hadn't realised the mosquitoes until the end! 

Aside from my campsite yoga, we did a lot of beautiful hikes, the scenery was so amazing with wildflowers and beauty everywhere that I couldn't resist taking the time to sit for a few moments, and even do a few poses out there with the view! 

Amazing!!  This week I have my final few classes that takes me through to the last of my three months of yoga, and tomorrow I will write more about this journey.
