I'm in Arizona. Sedona, Arizona to be exact. I flew into Phoenix today, met my aunt and second cousin, and drove to Sedona. It was a bit of a rough drive. I was getting a headache on the plane and although the drive from Phoenix to Sedona is really beautiful, my head was pounding. To top it off, I was nauseous from the bumpy flight and the curvy roads and stop and go traffic put me on the brink of motion sickness. By the time we arrived in Sedona, I was nearly puking and could barely keep my left eye open because the muscles in my head were so contracted. Not to worry, two Excedrin, two ibuprofen, a bottle of water, and a nap later and I was feeling much better.
We then headed out of town to watch the sunset against the rock formations. If you visit Sedona, head west out of town on 89A, turn left on Upper Red Rock Loop Road and drive a few miles until you see the second decent sized pull off on the left. Walk up the hill and then down a little to the left and there's a pile of rocks to sit on and watch the sunset reflect off the mountains. There will only be a few other people there and it looks something like this:
Nature, it does the heart and head good.
After dinner at Torta del Fuego (delish) and a soak in the hot tub at Sedona Real Resort, it's time for bed. Tomorrow: a Jeep tour of Native American ruins.
