Moab Spring Break: Arches NP

Audrey, mom, myself and the kids had a day planned for Arches National Park. The temperatures were great; in the 70's. We were looking forward to hiking to Delicate Arch (the most famous arch in Utah).

The drive through the park was beautiful. White, snow-capped peaks with the red rocks and landscape...

"Balanced Rock"

It felt great to exercise our legs on the trail.....

This route is very popular!

There she is with all her beauty. Both of them  ;)

Fun editing I did on picasa :)

Sitting in the sun while people watching....

You can see the scale/size of the arch when someone stands next to it, like we all did!

Heading back!

Oh the simple joys!

We did a little more sight-seeing before the park closed....

 Arches is beautiful but you can't escape the crowds. Tomorrow we would be joined by Bryan, Sarah, Violet, and Ocean where we would go to a (little) less-crowded national park ~ Canyonlands!
