Thurs., Sept 29, 2011 – Moab, UT






Today we headed out of Colorado and made our way to Moab, Utah. Our last stop before crossing the border was Aztecas restaurant in Grand Junction for lunch. We had eaten here before and it was a really great meal. We made this our destination lunch and I’m glad that we did. It was just as good as we remembered!

We arrived at the Moab KOA, unhooked the car and drove to Arches National Park. We did about half of the loop before it began to get dark. The rock formations here are really pretty. Over the years the sandstone has eroded leaving strange columns, arches and balancing rocks. It is a very scenic drive with lots of hiking trail to some of the more famous formations. We really got a good work out, as well as some great pictures! We had dinner in downtown Moab at the Moab Brewerey.

Tomorrow we are going to take a 4 hour jet boat ride on the Colorado River through the canyons in Canyonlands National Park.
