Unforgettable

It has been an amazing day! After staying at a beautiful hotel (which again allowed our entire family to stay in a single room for no extra charge), we enjoyed a delicious complimentary breakfast and then set out for a day of seeing some amazing sights.

Following the road into Zion National Park brought scenery like we had never seen before. Already we were in the land of red rock, cacti, and palm trees. The "road to Zion" brought beautiful rock formations, breathtaking mountain passes, incredible hiking trails and an amazing day of making memories with the family.

After hiking along the bottom of the canyon, we drove to the top, experiencing dizzying heights, hairpin turns and a tunnel over 1 MILE long. . The teens and Kim hiked to the lookout and enjoyed the scenery. We even drove through (a) Hurricane!

On the down side, one little guy from the other family we are traveling with started throwing up . . . so we are praying that whatever he has will be healed quickly and that no one else will catch it!

We head to San Diego tomorrow and get one step closer on our journey to Mexico.

PS at our stop in Mesquite, we didn't have wifi, so this was from yesterday. We are on to San Diego today.
