Sunday was a quiet day, we went to Kristins sisters house for dinner and some drinks. It was fun.
On Monday I went to the cinema to see Jackass 3D, it was excellent. Could've been longer but then again if it had been longer, the huge cherry coke I had would've worked its way out somehow. After the cinema we went to the Botanical Gardens in Phoenix. They were good. Lots of different colours, smells and new plants I have never seen. It's amazing how many different types of cactus there are.
Tuesday was spent travelling upto a cabin in Prescott, Northern Arizona. We stayed in a log wooden cabin in the middle of a pine forest. I was a little worried at first because I have had so many warnings about bears and I know mountain lions are widespread here too. We used a log fire too which was so so warm.
After what seemed the longest, highest (6000ft) and most curved road in the world, we arrived in Jerome on Wednesday. It is a small mining town on the side of a mountain. We went to the Ghost Town section and it was good. Met real life 'hicks' There was a large scrapyard of old American trucks and other vehicles. Then lots of old original buildings. We then went to the modern Jerome where we had a famous haunted burger at the Haunted Hamburger. It was the biggest and best hamburger/cheeseburger I have ever had. We then walked around for a while before heading back on the travel sick highway.
Thursday was another drive along the curvy road on the way to Sedona. In Sedona we hiked to Devil's Bridge. It was a tricky hike because I am not used to the heat, altitude and sandy ground. Once we hit the shady trees, it was all ok. The bridge was quite spectacular and the view from the top was just as good.
I am having issues with software so that's why there's a lack of images.
