Maggie's Recap of Utah

On Wednesday we woke up and we got ready. We got ready to drive to Moab. We  started the drive by playing Yahtzee. I didn't win but we still had fun. Next, we played Monopoly. We played for at least an hour and we had a blast! I won monopoly after a long game of teeter-tottering from loosing to winning. After monopoly I took a little rest in the back before we got to our KOA. A few of us headed to the pool and we met up with a few friends. We played in the water for a long time and we had loads of fun. After the pool the six of us went to go get dinner. We went to a Chinese restaurant and the only thing that they would not bring out was the only thing I wanted... eggrolls. Of course not including fortune cookies. After dinner we went back to the pool. Our friends were very nice to us. We met them in Bryce canyon a few days ago and we followed them into Moab. We have had a lot of fun with the Nelson's but they headed on their way to Denver while we are still stationed in Moab. After the pool we went back to our RV to play cards. We refreshed their memory of a fun card game and we played for a while. After card we got ready for bed.

Today we woke up with a quick start. Mom had already made to-go breakfast sandwiches. We got ready and we got into the car. We drove to Arches National Park and we drove a little ways in. We stopped at a trailhead for Delicate Arch and we hiked up to it. It was not the longest hike but it took us a while to climb the steep rock faces. We got to the top and we looked around. We hiked back down to the car and we drove to the visitor's center.  In the visitor's center we watched a short film about the how the arches formed.  After the film we looked around a little bit and got back in the car.  We drove to the grocery store to get a couple of things and ran to the RV to put them away.

We drove back in to the UTV shop where we had a reservation for a guided tour. We went on our tour through the landscape of Arches National Park. We had a lot of fun and we enjoyed the ride.  After the UTV ride we went back to the RV to swim in the pool. We cooled off in the water and we were at the pool for a very long time.  At the end of the night, we came back to the RV and watched a little TV.  Me and my mom headed to the shower house to get cleaned up.  We came back and got ready for bed.
