Amazing day. We hiked most of the South Rim trail to the east of the village.
Protip: always spring for the luxury train car. We loved it. #caboose #selfie
Another favourite from today…
Champagne toast on the luxury caboose car. Classy!
Today’s adventure: driving Route 66 – America’s main street – and heading to Hoover Dam and Vegas.
One of the Wonders of the Modern World, indeed.
Standing on the Dam looking downriver. I can’t believe I drove across that bridge!
Bucket List item for Mr Snook: get up close with a baby bear. SO CUTE.
Amazing red rock formations on our way to Sedona. We gasped a lot. #nofilter
Big Blue Van Blueberry Wheat Ale. Tastes like a blueberry muffin!
Eponymous. (But we didn’t eat there.)
Historic Route 66 on a Tuesday night in Spring is pretty dead.
It’s bright and beautiful and windy and COLD, and we’re taking a train to see one of the wonders of the natural world!
Capturing the Snook capturing a sunset. #hdr #nofilter
Lights and art in the desert… (Chihuly exhibit)
Amazing Chihuly glass artwork in the desert.
“I think,” said the Snook, “there are Graboids down there.” (Sunset Point, Arizona)
All packed up again. Second leg of trip is finished. It was great to catch up with some of you in Indiana (including some massive hugs from Sylvia Hyde, who gave the quote of the trip when meeting Rodd: “It’s the real Snook – he’s not just photoshopped!”). Apologies to anyone we missed. There are too many of you, and it’s easier for us to focus on just one or two places. Next time…
But for now, we head to the southwest. Route 66 is calling!
Evening tramp around the lake…
Bingo: before and after. No, we didn’t win anything. 
Fraggle is even bigger and fluffier than Dr. Amy!
We found it! Now for some quick lunch…
Best museum ever.
I had a moment with my hero too!
Action is our reward.
“We need to live on a lake,” he says. “I like this.”
That’s nearly a 5lb bucket of cookie dough. Ah, America.
My dreamy hipster outdoorsman!
Retail therapy. I found my perfect boots!
@shireenbasha gave me a list!
