On Sunday, after breakfast in the NW of Texas we drove into New Mexico, kept going through New Mexico and stopped for the night in Gallup in the west. On Monday morning we passed into Arizona and spent some time in the interesting Petrified forest and painted desert national park. Weird moonscape sort of landscapes. More driving and we got to Tusayan, the nearest town to the Grand Canyon for the night.
Tuesday morning we spent wandering around the southern rim looking down into the amazing Canyon. So many amazing views of different colours and shapes. Late lunch in the car, more driving and we got here, Springdale, Utah, the nearest town to Zion National Park in the evening.
This morning, Wednesday, after a late start ( what a suprise, everyone was quite tired) we went for a walk in the Canyon in the SE of the Zion NationalPark. Again, amazing but in a far more personal way. We walked along the edge of the small river that runs through the Canyon with high high walls either side. I left the others to continue on the walk up the river and came back to the hotel to catch up on a few things. So, maybe more details later on the wonderful places I have seen. Maybe not.
