We manage to navigate our way out of Vegas a lot more easily than we did getting in.
Our first stop is the Valley of Fire, with the most amazing rock formations.
Sue & me
Dona & Scott walk up to the viewpoint,but it is too hot for me to consider it
Leaving the Valley
As its Saturday,it seems that all the Harley riders from Las Vegas are in the area.
We stop for lunch at a Casino in Mesquite, where I get very confused trying to find the loos, but luckily Dona sets me off in the correct direction.
Heading towards Zion
Zion National Park
Scott & Sue have a National Park card which should allow 4 of into the park without paying. The warden says that its 4 people on 2 motorcycles & not 4 motorcycles and gets out the rule book, but luckily in the end he lets us through
Zion is stunning, especially with the autumnal hues of the leaves
Chequerboard Mesa
It had clouded over whilst we were in the park,but as we leave the sun comes out in its full glory.
Tonight is the only time we have pre-reserved a room, so its a long, dark, cold 109 mile ride to get to Page, for the Balloon Fiesta.
But the cold is soon forgotten as we arrive and see the Hot Air Balloons all lit up for Night Glow
