What a great day today has been! We started out by touring Zion NP by happenstance. We had decided that Bryce Canyon was a truly great example of the rock formations and flora and fauna, so we would not need to see Zion, but as it turned out, we had to drive through Zion to get over here to Arizona, close to the Monument Valley. There were so many people there and all the campgrounds were full and all the parking lots were full, it was amazing. There were so may Europeans and Asians there and retirees. Very few children, since I assume all schools have started by now. This must be a famous place to visit for those across the pond!! We thoroughly enjoyed our time there and got some good pictures. Onward!! We are in Kayenta, AZ smack dab in the middle of the Navajo Indian Reservation at the Monument Valley Inn. We are going to hire a guide to take us into the Valley via jeep in the a.m. We are so excited. After touring Monument Valley, we are heading to the Four Corners, which is about an hour away from here. Then onward to Albuquerque to see the final day of the hot air balloon races. I have started getting a little homesick and will look forward to hot footing it back across Texas, Arkansas with a stop in Baton Rouge to see how Jane Henry and family are doing since their flood.
