Kayenta and Monument Valley

I was surprised when I arrived to Kayenta, the time was changed, it was one hour ahead of the rest of Arizona, I was in Navajo County . I was a bit tired because I was coming from the Grand Canyon and I had to drive during 3 hours. So I decided to go to rest. The day after I wanted to go to Monument Valley,  so that is what I did, in the way out off the road in Kayenta, you can see the shapes of the stones and formations, it is amazing, Straight roads for miles. The lanscape was surprising and I  loved the quietness.

Las Vegas during the day

When I told to my friends I was going to Las Vegas, I got two different opinions, some of them loved it and the others were completely the opposite, they hated it. So I decided to take my own conclusions.
I knew would be hot, with many casinos and probably crowded. So I have to say I wasn´t expecting a lot. I wasn’t very optimistic.
It is true that after spending a few days in California, Arizona I was getting used to the hot  weather, and what to say normally I stand it very well.
Despite my low expectations, I was gratefully surprise when I found out the city was amazing. When I made the booking of the hotel, I decided to stay in Bellagio Hotel because of the location and for the water fountains show. There was entertainment everywhere. Even it was hot out in the street you could be walking by the corridors inside the buildings with the air conditioning. So you could find a lot of shows and the incredible decoration inside the hotels. I really enjoy my stay in Las Vegas. I loved it, I loved it all.

Big Sur-California-Usa

One of the best ways to go from Monterey to Los Angeles is for the coast called Big Sur, this part of 140 kms it is amazing with some cliffs and curvy roads ,wonderful to enjoy stopping in the places to see the landscape and the colour of the sea, actually when I went it was  August, there was some fires around, how can be induced for people? I was also surprised when I realised there where some posters encouraging and congratulating the firefighters.

Grand Canyon-Arizona-Usa

The previous night to go to the Grand Canyon I slept in Williams, in the morning I took the road and I stopped just a few minutes before the entrance of the park, I decided to rent an helicopter, It lasted 45 minutes, because is what they had available this time, there is no words to describe this wonderful landscape, the canyon. You can see yourself in the pictures …was amazing.

Horseshoe bend and Page

The previous night I slept in Page, it is a village with beautiful houses, where you can see a people with a lot of boats, because of the Lake Powell it is next to it, I went to the Horseshoe Bend, It was very hot but it was worth it to see, in this point where you can see the curve of  the Colorado River, it is an astonishing landscape.
