Mesa Arch and other nice places

Today we decided to go and see sunrise at famous Mesa Arch point in Canyonlands. We arrived to the parking about 5:30 and 15 minutes later were at the spot. What we noticed was about 20 people with tripods and cameras occupying best spots. Somehow we found good places to take photograph of sun rising over Mesa Arch and started to wait for a SunTM. After few minutes it appeared and people started to take pictures like crazy. Everyone had a different idea how to photograph this nice place. I decided to take a picture with sun rays on it. And I think I succeeded, but rate it yourself.
After leaving Mesa Arch we get back to camping for a breakfast. This day we had a grilled chicken para desayuno. The day before we found amazing stuff in supermarket - instant grills for less than 5 bugs. What does it mean? It means that you pay money and can instantly grill your food. Such device consists of something like ash can/container, coal or something similar, fire-starter and grid. You just need matches and some meat to prepare a complete meal. So we had very good breakfast that day.


Later we started to visit different parts of Canyonlands National Park. After few hours we decided Green River Overlook to be the most interesting part of the park (from photographic perspective) and stayed there for sunset. Light wasn't perfect, but I still hope to have few good pictures.
The day ended at the campground for the next night. This time night was a bit warmer and we somehow survived it more comfortable.
