Flagstaff/Sedona

After breakfast in a genuine Diner we walked around Flagstaff to see what was happening and found that it was not a lot.  I think it's most famous for the cowboy movies that were shot around here and also that Route 66 passes through it.


We had decided to go to Sedona, which everyone said was a magnificent place to see, and they weren't wrong.  It took us about an hour and half to get there - we got lost again - instead of the 45 mins it should have taken us.  Due to the fact that people were on holiday, the town was very crowded, so we didn't stop.  I took a few pictures, as we were moving, but my little camera really doesn't do the place any favours.  The colours of the rocks and the surrounding forests, are just amazing, and one should really see it in order to understand the beauty of the place. Below a few of the photos which I took.








We then drove back to Flagstaff, stopping on the way to pick up some native Indian trinkets.  We also found a Barnes and Noble (like a Waterstones), so decided to stop off for a coffee and look around.  Naturally couldn't resist buying a book and also bought a map of Nevada and California.


Out for dinner at a lovely Italian restaurant with excellent food.  Back to the hotel for a nightcap and then off to bed.
