This place was amazing.
The weather wasn't exactly mild.
Hot, dry, and windy...
but seeing the natural arches and unique rock formations was well worth it.
The arches were formed over a long period of time thanks to water, wind, and ice.
But the arches weren't the only unique sights.
Can you find an animal in this rock?
After hiking through the desert terrain, we found the famous Delicate Arch.
It was so big and grand!
We couldn't leave without visiting this natural beauty: Landscape Arch.
Arches National Park is a definite must-see if you are in the area.
That concludes my summer road trip...
I hope you are staying cool and enjoying the final days of summer.

Hi Jess,
ReplyDeleteI have been to Utah (traveling there with my husband .. on business)and saw some of these amazing rock formations. It's beautiful in Utah and the air is very dry (lots of moisturizer!) Looks like a wonderful trip!

Hello there, Jess! There has to be a silent awe that you can feel while being here; I've never been here, since I usually vacation in spots that are heavily populated! Lovely place to just THINK and see something bigger and much older than yourself. Anita
ReplyDeleteI love Utah! Arches is a wonderful place to visit, I was there about 25 yrs ago. Maybe I should visit again!

ReplyDeletePS : for Sheri, here are answers to your questions.
My husband takes most of my pictures, and sometimes my mom or my son : ) Pictures without me, I take them : ) And we use Iphone4S, and rarely ipad mini if phone battery gets flat during the day like it happened in Provence : )
And the flamingo swimsuit is from Asos.com : )
Have a lovely weekend : )
