Sightseeing Delights

Road Trip Days Nine and Ten

Very quick post about the last two days as I'm knackered. All yesterday was spent at Canyonlands - 'Island in the Sky' - National Park and what an amazing place it is. This morning we visited Arches National Park which is also spectacular in a different way. We have barely scratched the surface of either park and I fully intend to come back in the future and spend some time doing some proper walking in these places. Wifey agrees.

This afternoon we drove to Monument Valley and are now at the only RV Park there. Tomorrow we are doing a half day guided tour of the valley and then have almost 200 miles to cover to get to the Grand Canyon for our all day Canyon River Adventure - a full day of flying, jeeping and rafting.

Happy to report Wifey and Golden Child now much improved. I just need some sleep. I'll let the pictures tell the story.
