The wake-up call from the Luxor front desk came in at 7:30; by 8:30, we were on the road. After driving 90 miles in Nevada, we dipped into Arizona for a short 29-mile drive across the northwestern corner of the state called the Arizona Strip. This is the only part of Arizona that you cannot get to from Arizona; you must enter from Nevada or Utah. The first stop in Utah was Zion National Park near Springdale. After a brief visit and drive through Zion, we headed east through the Coral Pink Sand Dune area and then dropped south on our way back into Arizona, going to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon National Park. It was already late afternoon as we started the drive in the park that took us to Angel’s Window and Cape Royal overlooks, where the above photo was taken. Driving home, we saw the Vermillion Cliffs, crossed the Colorado River on the Navajo Reservation, and finally passed Flagstaff on our way home to Phoenix, Arizona.
