Today we set out- planning on running quickly by whatever we saw- but not detouring- until we reached Cameron, AZ, where we would stay the night. Instead, we took our time (somewhat) and had breakfast in Salt Lake with an old friend, and then started out south, stopping first in Bryce Canyon. It was a beautiful drive and a great way to kick off the day. Next we headed west to Zion National Park and took a drive through it's winding scenic route. We got some fun pictures and then headed on our way....
Cohen has become a pro at rest stops on the side of the road since
"when he needs to go... he NEEDS TO GO"....
Then we saw a sign pointing to "Coral Pink Sand Dunes" which we just had to see, so we took a 15 mile detour to see those and they just beaconed to be played in so we all stretched our legs and took it quite a bit of pink sand. Danissa collected some in a bottle and we headed out again...
About 2 hours later we finally crossed the Arizona border. FINALLY! But... we were just too tired and restless to continue on, so we are now in Page, Arizona at a Courtyard Marriot enjoying baths and cartoons! =) Tomorrow... breakfast and then the Grand Canyon!!!

Very awesome!
I am so glad you were able to see Bryce canyon (did you see the arches?) and Zion Nat.Park. I have heard they are wonderful. Nate went on spring break from Azusa to Zion taking his bike to ride. He said it was great.
Looks like you are all having an awesome time! Love the pictures!
I'm sure a bike ride on these roads would be the coolest! I didn't get to see the arches and Antelope Canyon was too far out of the way =( That's the one thing I will regret... I really wanted to see an arch! I'm not sure how we missed it, since we were told it was on the way... oh well!
You saw two of my favorite places - Bryce and Zion! Looks like a really fun time! Take care and drive safely!
