Today we made our way to Zion National Park. We arrived at our hotel in Hurricane before 2pm, so we spent the afternoon and evening at Zion National Park. They have this great service at Zion where there is a free shuttle that takes you into the park and to all the different stops in the park, and it leaves roughly every 7 minutes. One of the stops was called Weeping Rock. This is a place where the water is just seeping out of the rock, and it looks and feels like it's raining when you're under it. This water has been in the rock for thousands of years before it makes its way out. Because of this water, there is a lot of greenery in the canyon, which is odd because we're in the middle of the desert. We also saw some wildlife in the park--some deer and wild turkeys.
