The day started with a big breakfast cooked by Bob and Mary – always a treat.
We headed to the shuttle bus with our rented Adidas Terrex water shoes, socks and pole in hand and took on the Narrows hike. This involved walking 2 miles each way in the Virgin river as it flows, pretty fast, through the narrowest part of Zion Canyon. The bottom is rocky and it was a challenge, but lots of fun and very beautiful.
Then, back down to earth as we had to queue for one shower for 3/4 hour – totally worth it as showering is a complete luxury on this trip!
