Day 7 - Zion

Fantastic canyon.  Fantastic colors.  Many many people of many many tongues.  The town surrounding Zion is very pleasant with quaint shops and restaurants and handsome plantings everywhere.

It is hot.  90F today even when shaded in the canyon.    The scenery really is spectacular.  Access by crowed shuttle buses to various view points along the narrowing canyon until the road stops and walking begins.  Cement path takes you a mile deeper into the narrowing canyon.  Then the path stops.  Hardy types then enter a nice spring and continue up the canyon wading in the 2' deep spring.  We didnt wade.  

Saw a few animals.  One deer, several wild turkeys and three squirrels well trained in begging.

We did take lots of photos.  Many with unlimited framing options.  i.e. one could point the camera in most any direction and capture a beautiful image.
