Southwest Trip Day 6 - Zion and Bryce

We started our day at Zion National Park with a hike to the Emerald Pools.  Will was not that excited about the hike at the beginning and I caught the best picture of him:


We made it to the pools and the waterfall was more of a trickle, but the kids had a great time spotting wildlife - deer, dragonflies and tadpoles.




There was a little river when we got back to the lodge and we decided to take a quick wade.


You can see how many tadpoles there were here:



Blair was a little reluctant to get in at first, but afterward, she was proud and posed with Mom.


Then we drove to Bryce Canyon and the drive was fantastic.


Bryce was probably the prettiest park on our entire trip.



Brack took the kids back to the cabin for the night and let Jenn go on a dusk hike down into the canyon.  Here are some shots from the hike (Mojave trail):



This was our cabin for the night:


We drove all the way home on Day 7.  Overall, the trip was amazing.  The kids did great and we all made some fabulous memories.
