Here is where we stayed while in Zion. Tom & Julie made the reservations and gave us the suite complete with living room, full kitchen facilities, and extra long bathtub--perfect for soothing aching muscles!
Julie's pick for a site to eat our lunch. The day was warm, the Visitor Center crowded, tables public and sunny. We loved her choice! Of course, I have my mouth full--as always!
This picture includes a hummingbird hovering over the river can you find it? There were several which came while we enjoyed our meal.
After eating lunch, touring the visitors center and getting settled into our rooms, we took the tour bus up the canyon and viewed all the trailheads. We chose the river trail as our first choice:
Taken from the bus window on the drive up the canyon.
As you can see it was a beautiful trail and not too strenuous.
Or was it?
Actually, we just needed to cool off our feet after making the end of the trail. The narrows would have been the best part of the trail, but as you can see, there was just too much water to go much further. We had a wonderful day!
I found the hummingbird!
ReplyDeleteI think you might have stayed at the same place as Jer & I did when we went with Barbara & Eric to Zion's when Boston was 7 months--it was called Desert Pearl Inn. Maybe not same place but they sure look familiar. Anyways, so happy you had a great time. Love ya!
