Daddy-Daughter Vacation, Day Two, Part One

I'm having to split our second day into two parts.
Yes, we really did so much in one day that I can't cover it all in one post.

We woke up our second day in Arches National Park.
We had a plan to get packed up and ready early to make it out to Delicate Arch before it got too busy and too hot.

The hike out to Delicate Arch was really fun.
Along the way we got to see some Petroglyphs:

After getting a little off the beaten path and finding our way back, we reached Delicate Arch.




Now, for those of you that haven't been, don't be fooled.
The arch looks small in comparison to my dad and I, but that's an illusion.
 Check out the picture below...

 See that teeny tiny person in the blue?
Yeah, it's that big.

While we were up there taking a snack break and checking out the view...

...a little crow joined the party...
...and all of the foreigners were amazed.
Apparently crows aren't common in France? :)

After hiking back down from Delicate Arch we headed to The Windows, and then stopped at a few other arches on our way out.




It was hot, hot hot, and we were anxious to get out of there for a little relief.
Little did we know, we were in for some serious heat over the next three days...
