Shopping Fun!

Arches
I looked around some more but refused to buy anything else. I would have probably found something else I wanted if I kept on looking. All the products in there were just so unique and fascinating. It turned out that I wasn’t the only one who thought this way, because as George predicted, we were delayed 15 minutes because so many people were still shopping when it came time to leave.
The scheduled lunch was Chinese buffet again!! I just can’t believe this. I mean, I guess it’s hard to feed 50 people any other way, but two days in a row is just sick. We tried our darned hardest to find something else nearby, but there was nothing. At least this one is better than the one last night.
The whole afternoon was spent driving towards Arch National Park, the last destination for the day. I slept just about the whole way, drifting in and out because the bus bounced up and down on the crappy roads like some old amusement park kids ride. By the time we got there, the sun was already setting. We had to hurry because it would be impossible to take pictures in the dark. The Arch National Park had over 2,000 different natural stone formations, the shapes of which can be very… interesting. There are ones that looked like penguins, people, lions, windows, and even body parts! I don’t feel the need to explain further. Anyway, the most famous of all the arches are probably the two windows, which we spent a lot of time at. Too much, I should say. They are just holes in the rock. I personally thought the body part look-alikes are more interesting.
