Zion National Park

Tuesday, Aug. 24, 2010After breakfast we decided to go to Zion National Park. Left at 10:30am and arrived at Zion at noon time. It was a nice trip altho' it was hot. As soon as we got to the visitor's center we parked our car and took the shuttle to the park. They won't allow cars anymore to the park. We tried to sneaked in with our car but we were turned around. The shuttle comes every 6 to 8 minutes on every stop. There were 8 stops and you can stop on each one and looked around or you can hike if you want to. Beautiful, beautiful sceneries. On our way home we stopped at a trading post and had some ice cream. We are both diabetics but with all the walking we did and the heat that we had to bear I think 2 scoops of ice cream just sounded yummy and refreshing. While at the trading post we met the English couple who'd been traveling all over the Western States. On our way out we stopped at some stores that are selling all kinds of rocks with different colors.
