Getting into the car at the hotel
The view from the carDowntown Sedona
Barb at a Christmas store
Well for the first time in what seems like months we were able to get a full nights sleep.
The fact that we got two extra hours because of the time change made it wonderful.
After Ed had a full breakfast, we headed down a very, very winding mountain road to Sedona for a very full day of shopping. Barb must have taken hundreds of pictures of the mountains and we will have to delete a lot of them, but the views were spectacular.
Sedona is a very neat little town, but it is made for tourists and we were one of them. Lots of tour buses and people on the way to the Grand Canyon stop there. We went in most of the shops and of course had to buy some things.
At noon we met Dale and Judy Hammersmith from West Chicago who we met last year on the tour and have become good friends. We also met a couple from Ohio Tom and Lynn Checki who are on the tour and joined us for lunch at a Mexican restaurant on the main street of town. After lunch, we all shopped some more and made the drive back to Flagstaff. The drive is only 20 miles but it takes an hour – it was fun.
For dinner , 4 of the couples went to a “famous” steak house called Black Bart’s, which is very close to the hotel. Black Bar's has great steaks and old-fashioned cowboy entertainment with signing wait staff.
Well tomorrow starts the actual tour – see you in tomorrows blog.
