2009 : "Beauty
of the West"
|
 |
 It’s
been a long time since we’ve been to the west.
Time to visit some old “acquaintance”.
San Francisco, our starting point. Less has
changed, it’s still a very pleasant city with a wide variety of
possibilities.
It felt so good being there again, although the weather wasn’t on
our side.
Monterey and Big Sur were new to
us. Too bad we didn’t know the beauty of Big Sur, otherwise we
would have visited it much sooner.
A visit to Sequoia, Zion and
Bryce brought back some old memories.
 On
our way to Zion we went by Edwards Air
force Base, the place where the space shuttle lands if he’s
diverted to California.
In Page we’ve visited Antelope Canyon and
Glen Canyon Dam with the power plant. On our way to
Monument Valley we stopped by the Betatakin
Ruins. This is an old Indian village built in the rocks.
In Monument Valley we had the greatest room for the
whole trip. A room with a balcony and a view over Monument Valley.
What more do you want …
Our flight over the Grand Canyon was fabulous.
It’s a must do for everyone who’s visiting the Grand Canyon. When
you do this, you have a much better idea of what the Grand Canyon
is.
On our way to Las Vegas, we made a small detour
along fabulous Route 66, America’s mother road.
We’ve visited one of the most beautiful and famous part of Route66:
Seligman and Hackberry. This was
so cool!
 Our
final stop: Las Vegas. A lot changed, but we didn’t expect anything
else. Las Vegas changes continuously. But our visit was fantastic,
as all other visit to this incredible city.
