Texas stopping place

Because of favourable tailwinds and a change in the time zone, we arrived in Amarillo, Texas earlier than we had thought we would. So we headed 30 miles south to Palo Duro Canyon State Park. It was a beautiful place, first approached from the top of the canyon which gave us a wonderful view into the canyon - said to be second largest to the Grand Canyon. Then, via a switchback road, we wound our way down to the campground and spend the early evening exploring the canyon. It is now on our list for a second visit when we have more time to explore all the many hiking trails.
