Vale and Moab

We had a great day today.  Our first visit was to Vale, another winter playground for the rich and famous.  While it was interesting to see, to be honest it was like any other ski village but it had higher prices.
The highlight of the day was the visit to The Arches National Park.  A beautiful desert setting with giant stone towers and thousands of stone arches.  Fantastic place!
 In the early evening we went for a jet boat ride on the Colorado River.  The river has cut through the rocky landscape making a mini Grand Canyon.  We were also lucky enough to see beaver swimming in the river.  These ones do not build dams, they burrow into the banks for their nests.
