Las Vegas Trip (Day 5, July 1, 2008)






We checked out the cabin early in the morning and were on our way to Zion National Park. Zion in Hebrew means Sacred. One of the morman leaders named this place years ago. The scenery was spectacular, except that we had to take a bus ride offered by the National Park due to heavy traffic of the tourists.

In 1936, Zion National Park only hosted 3,600 people a month. Today, there are 2 million visitors every month. The famous scenic spot includes the weeping rock in the park, which was a 30 minute hike from the bus stop. Biajee and I were running out of time so we didn't visit it. The water dripping from the rock was from 1600 years ago, that's how amazing things get accumulated.

Biajee had to admit that every park here is better than the Grand Canyon, but the Grand Canyon is just some place everyone has to go to.

We had T Bone steak for lunch on our way back. Biajee just had enough time to drop me off for my flight. Then their flight was canceled so they had to get onto the next one and didn't get home till 11:30 pm.
