The day started frosty. No snow but a thick frost due to the negative temperatures. Lucky we were in a nice motel unit with central heating. We drove to Bryce Canyon and marveled at the amputheature, full of many of rock towers littering the valley. Bryce has its own beauty but I don’t think it’s as spectacular as Zion or Yosemite, or maybe I am getting used to all this dramatic landscape. We drove over to capital reef national park and took the scenic drive which featured rocks which had been given names of the objects that they looked like. Then [View Full Entry]

Yay! We made it to Utah. The trip was good overall. No speeding tickets, but we forgot to bring CD's so we listen to the radio when we can get it in... We brought some snacks with us so we didn't have to stop too much along the way. I bought a commercially produced pickled egg somewhere in Idaho. It was the most horrible thing I have ever eaten. It was hard and tasted like beef jerky. yucky. We made it to SLC around noon on Saturday. After meeting Dan and Nannette and the kids for lunch, we headed to Bryce [View Full Entry]

Sonnenaufgang am Bryce Canyon! Es ist ein absolut ueberwaeltigendes Erlebnis und wir sind froh, dass wir frueh genug aufgestanden sind. Wir wandern auf dem Queens Garden Trail und dem Navajo Trail und sind hingerissen von den spektakulaeren roten, rosa und weissen Felsen. Der Sandstein ist hier in den unglaublichsten Formen zu sehen, den ganzen Tag lang staunen wir ueber Maerchenschloesser, Koenigsthrone, alle moeglichen Fabelwesen und vieles mehr. Der einzige Nachteil fuer Robert ist, dass die sogenannte "Wall Street" wegen Steinschlags gesperrt ist. Am Fairyland Point angelangt, stellen wir [View Full Entry]

The past two days have certainly been chock full -o- scenic goodness! We left our campsite in Moab and made a stop in at Wicked Brew Coffee Drive Through to load up on our favorite caffeinated beverages before hitting the road. The highways we traveled through Utah had great views out every window. The speed limit was 75 and the roads were empty so between our many stops for pictures we were able make great time across the state (staying within the speed limit of course!). Our first stop on Tuesday was Goblin Valley State Park. The main features of this [View Full Entry]

And, apparently "The Best Fires On Earth". I slept under the glow from the blaze on Navajo Mountain. It was about 50 miles away and you could see the flames. From my understanding, that's a smaller one. Parts of Zion are closed and you can smell the smoke,as well as see it, from many miles away. It has been a very fun couple of days. I am staying at Bryce Canyon; at the historic Ruby Inn. It's just a stupid Best Western. Rented a White Toyota Camry. Not a bad little car. But I digress. Flew through Monument Valley on the [View Full Entry]

28-30 juni Efter at have været igennem to store nationalparker kan man ikke forestille sig at der fandtes noget der var endnu mere fantastisk. Vi var derfor ikke forberedt på det syn der mødte os ude på et af udsigtspunkterne i Bryce Canyon. Et kæmpe areal fyldt med stenstøtter i alle farvetoner gående fra hvid til rød. Alle disse fantastiske former findes ingen andet sted i verden i den mængde. De er opstået ved at to forkastnings linier krydser hinanden i noget prorøst sandsten og at dette ligger så højt (2500 -3000 meter) at temperaturen konstant skifter mellem frost og tø, [View Full Entry]

On our way in to Bryce we stopped at the Red Canyon. This wasn’t a planned stop it was just so beautiful we had to explore and take some pics. The rocks were the most brilliant, intense shade of red - enough to rival Ayres Rock. Bryce is only about 2 -3 hours from Zion. We arrived about lunch time and drove in. This park also had a shuttle but it didn’t run as frequently as at Zion and so we decided to take our car around. The parks are so big that driving around is necessary we weren’t just being [View Full Entry]

Hi Everyone, I know I have been updating this journal every day (hopefully you're not getting sick of reading them) but everyday there is just something so beautiful. Yesterday we spent the day in Bryce Canyon National Park and Zion National Park. They are both in southern utah about 30 minutes from each other so we spent half a day in each. Bryce Canyon was so much more beautiful than I thought. The Canyon was so vast and colorful. The rocks were bright orange, red, yellow, with a backdrop of lush green trees and snow capped mountains. Our first stop was [View Full Entry]
