Our last full day in Moab and it was raining... but we still had a great day and really didn’t miss out on anything. We started the day at the laundry and once that was done we did some shopping at Gearheads, the best camping/hiking store I’ve ever been to. Whatever you need for camping, they ever it in every size!
We went out for a delicious lunch of burgers, wraps, & smoothies in downtown Moab at the Peace Garden (perfect name for the aging hippies!)
After lunch we decided to return to Arches National Park. We checked out the movie and gift shop at the Visitors’ Center, and then took a slow driving tour of park, retracing the roads we covered yesterday and some that we didn’t. You can never get enough of such beauty.
Our 10 mile drive back into Kane's Creek Canyon was a little more nerve racking than usual as the dirt/gravel road was a lot sloppier due to the day long rain. Our vehicles were covered in the red Moab mud that will takes month to wash away. Our first stop when we leave tomorrow will be a car wash.
Amazingly the rained stopped when we got back to our campsite around 6:30 PM, so Alex made a fire and we enjoyed left over pizza for dinner. Anticipating more rain, we packed up all our gear and turned in for the night around 9 pm just as the rain returned!
