The next day, we set off for Bryce Canyon National Park, also in Utah.

The Hoodoos really casted their spell on us.  By the way,a hoodoo is a pillar of rock, usually of fantastic shape, left by erosion.
We started our hike among the hoodoos from Sunrire Point.

Finally after a 2 hour hike from Sunrise Point, we reached our destination, Sunset Point

Then we continued our journey to Kanab, the Hollywood of Utah.

There was the letter K engraved on the hillside, imitating the famous HOLLYWOOD sign

From Kanab, a cowboy town, we proceeded to Glen Canyon Dam.

 

We were lucky to have finished our visit as dark clouds were forming across the sky.

From here, we proceeded to our camping ground for the night.
