So, my first actual stop to use the computer comes at our hostel in Moab, but back to that later...
After finding the campground full near Sedona, we headed south of town towards a state park, where we found a Wal-Mart, our first in a good while. An hour or so was spent shopping, after which we realized what time it was....our watches said 11:42pm, which was late enough as was, but we then realized that we were back in Arizona from Vegas, which meant it was actually 12:42am...ouch. We found the state park and a campground shortly after, and managed to sleep and get up in time to sleep for free(bad karma, I know, but why the hell should one have to pay to SLEEP? I mean, really??)
From there it was on to the Grand Canyon, which is very cool, but not a ton to do unless you are hiking. Not that I have anything against hiking, but Bryan was pretty set on hiking to the bottom, which I am in no shape to do in a day(and they don't recommend that, btw) and we didn't have gear to spend the night. We did spend the night in the campground though, and that was enough for us! We were there for Thanksgiving night and made ourselves a great campstove dinner of grilled turkey breast with instant mashers and beans, which is quite a feast for camping, but then froze our tookases off when the overnight low reached -3! No more camping in that, thank you! Off to Monument Valley and Colorado we went!
