Today the 29th Friday, we left Kanap Arizona on our way to Monument Valley which is in Arizona and Utah, as you all know it has magnificent monoliths jutting out of the desert, it’s not quite what I expected I might have some other place in my head (thought it was more colourful and more mesas, can any out there let me know of this place I am thinking of) I was a little disappointed because of this , but Lee wasn’t .
We took the drive down on the valley floor and stopped at a lookout to take some photos; we had a good laugh with one of the Indian traders, he had us in stitches reciting Aussie terms such as ‘Crikey’, ‘stone the crows’ very funny, it’s one of those things where you had to be there. Bought a couple of pieces of so called authentic jewellery which they guaranteed that they made themselves...... every stand has exactly the same stuff, probably manufactured in China. It’s still pretty nice.
We are changing our plans again, we were going to go to Colorado next to a place called Mesa Verde, but we have decided to go further north into Utah and visit the Arches National Park, which as the name suggests has arches. Looks pretty spectacular, after that we will cross into Colorado and head down towards Mesa Verde and probably stop on the way at the Sand Dunes National Park.
