Arizona here we come! Thanksgiving 2010 Part 1

So much to see...so little time. The day started with visiting a local museum featuring the local slithering fellows, including snakes, turtles and lizards. The Lloyds are fun to take pictures with as a Goof Off picture always follows a poser picture. We a carried on to Mexico after the museum and found a local flee market to experience the mexican commerce. Interesting to say the least. Needless to say, we were all relieved to be back on American soil and the transition from Country to Country was absolute. We did buy some antibiotics as you can buy it over the counter there. The local flour tortilla was also a hit as the flavor is 10 times better than the packaged stuff in America. A short drive from Douglas, AZ (border town) brought us to Bisbee, AZ which has a copper mine pit nearby. Bisbee is just like Virginia City, Nevada, or Park City, Utah in the street front stores and local hippee population. It was a great part of the day to enjoy the shops and even watched the cities official Christmas light festival. It was unseasonably cold there in AZ and had to buy a sweater and Layne a poncho.


































We left on Monday after I got off work and drove as far as Kanab, Utah and stayed the night there. We left early enough to make it to Pheonix in time for a visit with my neice Hilary as it was her lunch hour. Me met at a great Mexican place called American Taco Shop! Thanks for a great visit Hilary!
