Sedona!

Our first day in Sedona was the antithesis of the trip so far. The goal was not to get in the car all day! Our leisurely day just included some time swimming and games. We also explored uptown (that's what they call it...) Sedona and found a shop where we could get orange-chocolate fudge. It was a good day; we're enjoying being spoiled with luxuries like running water and electricity.

The pace has been a bit slower:



We woke up the next morning and went to Red Rock State Park, just about ten miles down the road. The park had beautiful views of the rock formations that surround the Sedona area. We hiked the Eagle's Nest trail to an overlook of the park and followed the perimeter to a bridge over Oak Creek. We admired all of the healthy sycamores that surround the water.



After a picnic at the park, we headed back to Sedona for the afternoon for more swimming and games. We met my cousins Kim, Gret and Aunt Helen for supper at the Hideaway. It was great catching up, we haven't seen them since the wedding. The food was great and we're both set for lunch tomorrow, yum!

  2. Chris failed to mention that we went to a restaurant and got an amazing chocolate marscapone cake with berries... yup - it was delicious! Not quite as spectacular as the Chocolate Avalanche we had in Durango, CO, but pretty darn close!
