Zions Adventure

THE ALMOST FUNNY BUT NOT QUITE MISHAPS:

1. Forgot to get the free pass to Zions from the library = 25 BUCKS down the drain

2. Stephan had to go SHOPPING 

3. Stephan LOST his KNIFE in Wal-Mart all thanks to a cart

4. It took about 2 HOURS longer than we expected to get to Zions. 

5. We couldn't find the free camping area. 

6. Had to pay to camp next to a ZILLION people

7. Raw beef  + NO FIRES ALLOWED sign  = high priced sandwiches at the local bar

8. Tent but NO POLES 

9. Tarantulas, giant beetles, and wicked fast cockroaches but NO TENT!

10. Cheese, Chip Bagel a la Miracle Whip for BREAKFAST



WHAT MADE THE TRIP WORTH IT
1. Delicious sandwiches and fries served to us in AC and in minutes
2. An awesome ghetto-rigged tent that kept us cool and TARANTULA FREE!


3. Sweet hike up a mountain that had an incredible view the entire time.







 


4. 1500 YEAR OLD WATER squeezed out between layers of sandstone


5. Emerald pools of DESIRE



6. SCRUMPTIOUS turkey and cheese bagel sandwiches for lunch
7. A quick dip in the STREAM to cool off



8. French, German, Spanish, and English ACCENTS = unexpected cultural experience


9. A RELAXING car ride back to P-town
