Zion National Park

Zion National Park was on my first plan for the trip, while needed to be removed so the plan has overall fit. Due to recent changes I manager to get some extra time to go there yesterday and I am very happy because of it.

Zion park is ocated north from Las Vegas, on the way to Salt Lake City

Entering new state - and new time zone

Zion Park was promised to be very beatiful place - and this was exactly the impression I had. Park is located in a canyon, half of it is open only to pedestrion, bikes and park shuttle. I used the shuttle and saw some fantastic places.

Fantastic hanging garden

Interesting was to see landscape change after going thru a tunnel made across one side of the canyon.

During afteronoon I reached a motel on the way to my next interesting place - Grand Canyon. Today I've seen the North Rim and tomorrow I will see the South Rim - you'll be able to read this soon on the blog.

Ps. Yesterday morning I drove thru Las Vegas. I do not have pictures as this place is not in my type ;-)
