Memorial Day Travel - Part 1, Headed toward St. George, Utah

      My husband and I went a road trip during three-day holiday. On May 24, we headed toward St. George in Utah to go to Antelope Canyon next day. While drove through I-15, the most scenery was desert.

      I uploaded myYoutube video which I recorded on I-15.

        We stopped at Las Vegas Premium Outlets North for shopping for a while. Then, we headed toward St. George again.

        After driving through desert for a while, the scenery significantly changed at Virgin River Gorge. We drove through I-15 seeing extraordinarily giant sedimentary rocks. It was spectacular!

       The scenery of Arizona was very beautiful. We drove a very long distance, but the scenery got rid of tiredness from driving so long.





      I uploaded my Youtube video, which I recoded on I-15.


       We finally arrived in St. George and stopped at Pioneer Park, overlooking St. George.

     We were able to see Zion National Park from Pioneer Park.

       As I mentioned in my previous entry, we stayed at Motel 6 that night. I'll write about where we went the following day next time.

Motel 6 St. George, Utah - Review

      Yesterday, my husband and I stayed at Motel 6 in St. George, Utah for our first time. It was a non-smoking queen bed for a Saturday night stay for $62.26.

     The room was nice and clean. They provided free WiFi, and Internet access was pretty stable. :)

      There was no bathtab but it's fine for me.

      Amenities were really limited. There was no shampoo, conditioner, nor hair dryer, but it was no problem for me at all because I usually prefer to use my own ones. I used their soap only, but I didn't like it. Even though I rinsed my hands thoroughly, I still felt something on my hands. My husband told me that he didn't like the soap either.

       The front desk staffs were friendly and check in was pretty quick. Overall, this Motel 6 was fine for us. It was okay to stay for just sleeping.

     I uploaded my Youtube video which I recorded there.

Red Ginger in St. George, Utah

      My husband and I are going on a road trip. We are staying in Utah tonight. We searched good restaurants here and found this Chinese restaurant, Red Ginger, which has many positive reviews on Yelp. We decided to try this restaurant for dinner.

     We ordered their Egg Flower Soup for $2.25. We put these chips on the soup, and it turned out very good!

      This Mongolian Beef with Fried Rice was $8.99. This dish tasted really good but was pretty greasy. Their fried rice was just as good as I expected.

     This Cashew Shrimp with Fried Rice was $12.95. This dish had many kinds of vegetable, so I really liked it. Shrimps were fresh and juicy. :)
