We finally got going today after 3 days of waiting for the freakin' door hinge. Flew to wonderful Bullhead City (KIFP) via Lake Havasu. VERY hot there, well over 100 degrees. Mostly full of old people. Ordered Grilled Ham and Cheese for lunch, and it came with American cheese. Gross. Continued the flight and passed over the Grand Canyon. That was amazing. Unfortunately, photos don't do it justice. If you're a pilot, this is something you should do at some point, it was really cool. Continued the flight up through incessant light turbulence due to thermals, which also meant constantly dealing with up and down drafts, which was kind of a pain. Landed in Moab just in time to pick up our rental car, and then drove to the Red Cliffs Lodge. The place is amazing, it's where tons of movies are shot. The photo of the mesa was taken near sunset from right in front of our room. Sweet.

Tomorrow, it's on to Goulding's Lodge in Monument Valley.
