We are leaving Moab, UT today! We stayed in the same hotel for 3 nights and today we’re heading for southwest Utah to see Bryce Canyon and Zion NPs. We’ll be driving through Capitol Reef NP on our way, but I don’t expect it to be so fabulous that we’ll need to stay there long!
Random interesting things that might interest you about my vacation:
- We have taken over 700 pictures so far, and we’ve only been to 2 parks!
- I’ve attached some pictures for you all to enjoy below.
- There are more Europeans here than Americans, I’m pretty sure. We’ve heard German, French, Russian, some Eastern European languages, Japanese, Chinese, and more!
- We’ve seen people carrying infants (as in like 3-6 months old) through these parks. Crazy people!
- I’ve gotten no major sunburns (30 spf sunblock), but just enough sun to come back a little bit tan. Yippee!
Okay, and on to pictures (from Wednesday):
This vista is taken from the upper side of Partition Arch…some vista, huh?
This is me walking on a ridge that had to be crossed to get to the next arch. I was WAY up high and was very uncomfortable – notice the clenched fists (heights and I are on speaking terms…that’s it). Eric took this shot right before I made him come walk with me and hold my hand to make sure I didn’t fall off!
And to end the day, we got some good shots of Arches NP’s most well-known arch: Delicate Arch. Isn’t Eric a good photographer!?!



I don’t know – do you have one?
I’m guessing it was more about lack of sleep and lots of stress hoping to get on a plane sometime! A little wearing on the immune system!
I definitely wouldn’t have like crossing that!!!
When is your vacation over?
II’m not sure I would have made it as far as you did…maybe if I’d crawled!! How long was it? Your pictures are fantastic, though!
Hmmm….I’m not sure I’d like crossing that either!!
Looks like you’re having fun, though!
Have a great time at your next stop!
