Arkansas | Hot Springs National Park

🌟After wrapping up our trip to the north shore, a sudden urge to travel for Labor Day struck, and on a whim, we set off for Hot Springs National Park. The trip didn’t start smoothly; our booked Sun Country flight had to be canceled due to a schedule change, so we switched to UA. On the day of departure, UA delayed the flight because the crew hadn’t had enough rest, causing us to miss our connecting flight in Chicago. Luckily, with the help of a skilled ground staff member, we managed to get rebooked through Houston, arriving in Little Rock only three hours later than planned. Who would have thought that we’d come back from vacation with a big surprise 🎉 Accommodation: 🌟The Happy Hollow Inn, Hot Springs Double Tree by Hilton, Little Rock Food: 🌟VAULT, a restaurant converted from a bank The Pancake Shop Kollective Coffee & Tea SQZBX Brewery & Pizza, a restaurant decorated with musical instruments Superior Bathhouse Brewery, beer brewed with hot spring water, and the only brewery located inside a national park Cafe 121 Chipmunk Cafe Lost Forty Brewing, Little Rock Activities: Hot Springs National Park 🌟The Historic Bathhouse Row Fordyce Bathhouse Museum & Visitor Center Mountain Tower Grand Promenade Walk Garvan Woodland Gardens Anthony Chapel Petit Jean State Park Little Rock 🌟Esse Purse Museum & Store William J.

Paxlovid was quite effective for me; by the third day of taking the medication, my headache symptoms were greatly relieved, and my temperature returned to normal. I persisted in taking all the medication, considering it a forced immunity boost. 😷💊 #Travel #USNationalPark #Arkansas #LittleRock
