A little while ago, I started a series of posts about the trip my girlfriend and I made to Western US in April – May. I must confess I have a hard time finishing up. The truth is that it is no longer hot, I am not excited anymore by the trip. And I don’t remember the little details that make a story sound true and interesting to read. So, just for the sake of completeness, here are the other places we visited:
Stop #4: Mesa Verde National Park
Not as terrific as the other parks, but we learned a lot about the particular way of life of the ancestors in this region. The rangers have a true talent, they tell you the story with details.
Stop #5: Arches National Park and Moab
We stayed 1 night in Moab and went rafting on the Colorado river (under the rain) from there. Arches NP is nearby.
Stop #6: Bryce Canyon
Only one place like this. It is so beautiful that I did not want to leave.
Stop #7: Las Vegas
Sin City. Well… you have to see it once, it is just crazy.
Stop #8: Death Valley
God this is a hot place. And I mean hot. The main feeling hiking outside is that you could die. It is weird, nowhere else have I been aware that if I stay too long outside, I will die.
Stop #9: Yosemite
Waterfalls, wildlife, landscapes and bears, real bears with fur and claws.
Stop #10: San Francisco
What a shock when we got to SF. We were back to civilisation. SF is a nice city to visit. Good food. The cable car, the ups and downs, the Golden gate bridge.
