Bryce and the Japanese

Have you ever heard of Bryce Canyon? No?! I didn't think so! Apparently Americans don't know about it -- I'd say the park is 3/4 foreigners. You walk around and you hear so many non-English speakers that you feel like you're in Europe or something.

It did get a bit annoying when a group of Japanese tourists took about 1,000 pictures at this one scenic overlook, so that no one else could squeeze in. To show my annoyance, I took some pictures of them as well. Here's one:



Nice looking guy, but not very polite. Then, when he still didn't move, I just started narrating their photoshoot. That also backfired, bc based on the dirty looks they gave me, they clearly spoke English.

ANYWAY. I finally got a picture there but it's on Perkins' camera. I do have some other cool pics though!



On route from SLC to Bryce. Perkins' headwear is legit.


This was our super authentic western lunch spot! I had a garlic burger. It was great! Besides being the "best food in town," it also has the distinction of being the only restaurant in town. Moreover, "town" was comprised of about ten dilapidated buildings. It was awesome.


Made it to Bryce!


Perkins and I did not have proper footwear, nor did we avoid dangerous cliffs. Somehow, we survived.


I took a picture of matt like this last year, and now I took a similar silhouette pic of Perkins. I think they look cool! Will someone take a pic of me one day like this?


Those knobby things are called hoodoos. I don't know why but they're cool


When the sun goes behind clouds, it gets much darker


Perkins really liked caves


Sun is back!


Then it started raining and we had to take cover. It was kind of fun


Pretty big mountain



Sunset


Hello deer!


We drank some of this


I made a fire. First Perkins questioned my fire making ability. Then she criticized my fire for burning too hotly! Then I stepped on an ember that had thrown out of the fire and burned my foot.


Woah scary!

  1. This blog is inaccurate! I did not question it, I merely was trying to learn. But then, when you burned all of our fire for the night in the first 5 minutes, I did try and get the situation under control.
