Today, I share a travelogue from Compass traveler Lois Watts who joined us on our Western adventure to America’s Canyonlands this Fall. Enjoy!

On September 19, a merry band of 18 travelers, hosted by Compass Travel, left the ordered world of New England behind for a 10-day tour of another world: America’s Female Flat shoes Pointy Toe Leather Ladies Loafers Women Bag shoes Low Top Square HeelAnkle Boots Women Autumn Genuine Leather Boots Zipper Leather Flat Round Toe Boot Botas womenCanyonlands—ancient, Wedges shoes Woman Platform Vulcanized shoes Hidden Heel Height Increasing Casual shoes FemaleBeacon Womens Payton Almond Toe Ankle Fashion Bootsprimeval, surreal, untouched by time and civilization.
Our first stop was Utah, where we met up with Jennie, our fantastic tour guide and “Happy Max,” our bus driver.MGD-70 Womens Casual Slip-On Pump HOT PINK WOMENDmoshibei Fashion Wind Elegant Heel Ladies Pumps New Pointed Toe high-Heeled Wedding Women shoes We began our visit in Zion National Park, a world of towering red stone cliffs that surrounded us as we set off on a hike. No words or photographs can begin to capture what rain, wind, time and the Colorado River shaped over millions of years. Suddenly, we felt reduced in size and significance entering these giant red canyon cliffs of Zion.

We all felt the awesomeness of this towering world that enveloped us.
Evenings we stopped to check into our hotel, the bus bursting with cheers when Holly announced, Canvas shoes Slipony Women Footwear Slipony Casual shoes SneakersHUYP Red Cotton Slippers Striped Female Winter Warm Non-Slip Indoor Wooden Floor (Capacity 37)“There’s a bar in the hotel!”
Next was Bryce Canyon, a vast series of amphitheaters that unfolded ad infinitum with dazzling colors of red, pink, lavender, and orange stone shapes called “hoodoos” created by nature through the millennium. The hoodoos rose from the plateau in all shapes and sizes as if a giant had been playing in the sand.ESTHER Women Weed Beach Bag Weed Bags Designer Shoulder Bag Ladies Knitting Women Straw Hand Bags BagsFrestree Unique Design Low-Cut Canvas Sneakers Street Style Low Top shoes School Blingbling-honored Wholesale Fashion Real Fox Fur Slippers Woman Summer Non Slip Indoor Outdoor Fur Hair shoes SandalsHoxekle Women Wedges Lace-Up Slope Floral Sandals Hight Heel Fashion Summer Loafers No-Slip Comfortable shoesSome were shaped like castles or cathedrals, all otherworldly as the mind struggled to take in the size, shapes, and colors. There are no words to describe the majesty of this natural phenomenon created by wind, ice, and rain, eroding into fantastic shapes as far as the eye can see.
We then boarded small eight-passenger planes and flew over Monument Valley, the ancestral and mysterious homeland of Navajo Indians. Upon landing, we traveled by jeep with our Navajo guide along the dusty roads through the valley. Stark red stone pillars of all shapes arose throughout the desert,Exclusive shoesbox Mens Womens Water shoes Five Fingers Quick-Dry Bare Foot shoes Swimming Beach Toe shoes Outdoor Trekking SneakersHot Chocolate Design Chocolaticas Cinetic Women's Mary Jane Flat standing as high as 400 feet, sentinels standing guard over this land.

Back on the bus, we drove to the Museum of Northern Arizona, which houses pottery, Battle Men Women and Men's Flat Heel Mesh Fabric Athletic Leisure shoes Fashion (color bluee, Size 3.5 D(M) US Big Kid)Ellie shoes Women's 421-Jane-G Maryjane Pumpjewelry, basketry, rugs, and weaving representing the Navajo, Hopi, and Zuni cultures.
The Grand Canyon is a place unto itself, stretching 277 miles long, 18-20 miles wide and 18 miles deep.

Civilization comes close here with many hotels and lodges located near the rim. Imagine sitting on the porch of the lodge sipping a drink as the sun moves across the massive canyons turning them red, then purple, then green and then orange. An experience to savor; a moment where civilization and ancient canyons meet.
We then began our downward trek from almost 8,000 feet, the Colorado Plateau,Womens Ladies Feather Vintage Slip on Beach Sandals and Anti-Slip Shower Slipper Comfort SandalsWomen's Sneakers 2019 Fashion Women Platform shoes Trainers Student Board shoes Boy Girl shoes Outdoor to our destination in Sedona, with a stop in Flagstaff for lunch along the way. Jennie said we might “feel the vortex here” and, while I never felt it, Sedona was a positively beautiful town situated in a pocket with red cliffs surrounding and protecting.
By the last day, we were all getting a bit tired and the bus had grown quieter until it was announced that our hotel had a bar. Then the cheers erupted from the back of the bus as the merry band of travelers capped off their days with a cool one.Cici shoes Med-Heel Dance shoes,Women Rumba Waltz Prom Ballroom Latin Ballet Dance Singles shoesClassic Slip On Loafer Women's Casual Penny Loafer Comfort Walking shoesWhat a fun, friendly, traveling group.

Our vacation was AWESOME. We had so much fun. All of our travels went smoothly. Our tour director, German Rojas, was great. It was the perfect combination of activities and relaxation—we had so many interesting things to do. Our tour group included 22 people. Traveling by bus, we saw many different parts of the country; rest stops and attractions along the way helped break up the driving.
Cambridge Select Women's Slip On Double Buckle Platform Slide SandalThe girls’ favorite part was Tortuguero, where we took boat rides into the rain forest. We saw a wide variety of animals including sloths, crocodiles, monkeys, otters, turtles, iguanas, king fishers, toucans, and every imaginable bird, flower, and butterfly.

We visited the Arenal Volcano, walked through the rain forest on suspension bridges hundreds of feet above the ground, went zip lining (thrilling), went to a breathtakingly beautiful beach and swam in the Pacific Ocean, filmed the monkeys frolicking in the forest, visited small towns along the way, enjoyed beautiful countryside, shopped for souvenirs, sampled all kinds of delicious foods and all in all had a terrific time.AicciAizziWomen Dress Booties Thin High Heels BootiesHanglin Trade Women's Flat Sandals T-Strap Bohemian Rhinestone Slip On Flip Flops shoes Beach shoes.
