Traveling home to Denver Day 1

We drove from SLC to Grand Junction today, we left SLC at 8.30am and arrived in GJ at 6pm. LONG DAY!
Lots of long straight roads

Arches National Park near Moab Utah

Brett in Arches NP

Brett at the arch we hiked a couple of miles to see

Me under the arch

It is fairly warm so I needed a sit before hiking back to the car

Took off my pretty top and hiked in my singlet top cos it was sooooo hot!

The view on the drive down
 Then we took the longer more scenic route back to I70, through a gorgeous canyon (the pics don't do it justice).


Once we got through the canyon we had 10 miles of absolute desolate lands though!!!

Cisco Utah is pretty much a ghost town, not sure why it gets a dot on the map even!

Now I am relaxing in the motel in Grand Junction before the final leg of the drive home tomorrow. Can't wait to see Matt & the dogs :)

  1. Hi there, I am an Aussie in Denver too :) Love looking at your pics. Hoping to do some kind of similar trip soon. There are so many beautiful things to see around Colorado and surrounding states.

    1. Hi Haley welcome to my blog! Love having 'Aussie' visitors :-) We must catch up sometime and swap expat anecdotes!

  2. LOVE the pictures! I nominated you for the Liebster Award. Thanks again for the mind map lead ... my brain will never be wired quite the same since discovering that web of connections and comparisons.

    Feel free to respond to the nomination or not, but more info is available at:
