After a visit to make Jean-Luc discover Antelope Canyon, where I didn’t take my camera, having already widely photographed this place, we had a beautiful light on Lake Powell.

\nWe decided to go to Alsrtom Point, a fantastic view of Lake Powell. We arrive too late for sunset but sunrise was beautiful.
\n 
\nAnecdote. While we are having dinner in Vivalavida, I couldn’t believe my eyes: I see a mouse pointing the nose from under the fridge! It disappears as I move and we must wait for a few quiet minutes to see it looking at us again. But how was she able to get here..? We then organized a mice hunt. Do not laugh, ok? \ud83d\ude09 Not a chance, after more than an hour when she always escapes us, we decided to go to bed.
\nAbout three o’clock in the morning, I was awakened by an unusual noise: it was Mrs mice that have reached the trash and was walking in the bowl, in the plastic bag she started cutting. This was the opportunity that I expected! I get up as quite as possible and I took the bowl that contained the trash. She was then trapped, unable to jump from so high. Before she decides anyway, I opened the door and walked away a few feet. As I crouched down, she jumped up and ran away in the bushes. I had only to go back to bed…
\nIt will be seen later that it was probably mounted the stairs while at Doll House, one of his fellows had already reached the second step when I saw her… We will take care now…!

\n3. First sunrays on Lake Powell, nice play to live when you’re a mouse! \ud83d\ude00

\nAfter this lovely visit, we decided to try – try again for me after seven unsuccessful attempts – our luck in the lottery that assigns every day ten places to visit the famous Wave. Jean-Luc brought me luck because we have learned to go in the second round. We then spent the afternoon walking the Buckskin Gulsh, preparing for the next day. to come soon …:-D
