This morning, we departed Zion Canyon. Zion National Park is wonderfully run, with a very environmentally modern visitor center, to a fleet of propane powered park buses, the park is easily accesible and beautiful. Additionally, unlike other parks, it has a great town, just right outside! We ate lunch today in a restaurant called Oscar's Cafe. There, I had the best ribs I've ever had. Lila had fish tacos, also delicious. They played such classics as "Mr. Roboto" as well as "Don't you, Forget about Me..." Also the fish tacos were spelled "Phish" Tacos... so obviously I liked the place.
After a two hour drive to Bryce Canyon, we checked into the local Best Western and went to look at the Canyon. Skipping the obvious viewpoints, we continued to Bryce Point, less crowded with better views. Geologically, Bryce is easily my favorite canyon we've seen. Tall sandstone strucutres protrude from the canyon floor, Hoodoos they are called. Tomorrow, we plan to wake up to watch sunrise over the canyon and then to do a short 2 mile hike before we jump in the car and drive the 4 hours back to Las Vegas.
