Vacation - Starting June 1st through 9th

Yellowstone is the America's first designated National Park and is famous for the wildlife. Last week, my partner and I were on vacation and took a trip to Yellowstone. We incidentally visited Zion National Park, Bryce Canyon National Park, Grand Teton National Park and Las Vegas during this vacation.
This map is a rough direction of our journey that covers 6 states, California, Arizona, Nevada, Utah, Idaho and Wyoming.

June 1st
From San Diego to Zion National Park
We departed our house at around 6:30am and took I-15 North for Zion. Due to some congestion at the area shortly passed Las Vegas, it took us about 7 hours to arrive at Zion.
As soon as finding our space in the Watchman camping ground I booked beforehand, we built up our tent and prepared to camp out for two nights. Being exhausted after a long drive, we just relaxed reading a book and felt a fresh breeze blow.

Just for the record... I could not take a shower for two nights. There was a shower room belonged to the RV park outside of the park's gate, yet we had no idea that there was a time limitation for outsiders. Only solution to freshen up was to use a tap water and wipe ourselves.

After sunset, an open air fire and a starry sky gave us an energy for tomorrow. We slept sound without being attacked any animals. Phew... :)
