March 28, 2022 - back in Zion

 It was a bit cloudier and cooler today. We had hoped to hike the Narrows, but the current was too strong and the water a bit high, and were advised that it would be tough and scary. So we opted out. Instead we hiked the Watchman Trail - a nice moderate trail.

At the top of the trail. “I’m on the top of the world looking down on creation…” 🎶

The red rock was the top of our hike…it doesn’t look as high up as we thought.

After our hike we went to hike the Riverwalk near the Narrows.  As we hiked toward the Narrows, we saw one young gentleman (about my height) who had submerged in the water and being helped down the trail to get dry and safe.  Glad we opted out.  Maybe another day when the mountain snows are not melting.

After our hike, we cleaned up and walked to dinner, but first stopped at the Bumbleberry Hotel where I stayed with my family when I was 15.  Wanted some Bumbleberry pie - but the bakery and restaurant had burned down and they were rebuilding it. But we did buy the jam!

Pothoven Family - this will be served at HH when we get back to the mitten! 😋

We then ate dinner at Oscar’s Cafe. Very good.

Tomorrow we head to Sedona for a few days.
