It keeps getting better!

Today I drove from Las Vegas to my favourite town in the USA: Springdale, Utah. It really is a unique little town in a fantastic, unbelievable setting. The drive wasn't half bad either. I avoided the I15 as much as I could and took the smaller roads. I can talk for hours about the beauty of this part of the USA, but a picture says more...

Now isn't that an impressive road?

It started out a bit desert-like. This is close to Vegas still. Lake Mead to be precise.

Something you can't avoid: stunning nature attracts the camper-crowds.

They are extremely nice, friendly and welcoming people by the way. So this part was already impressive, but the closer you get to Utah, the better. The redder too.

I can just park my car and stare at it for hours...

I am going for a walk now. The sun is setting and that is always a beautiful time here in Springdale. Take care now!
