There are some rain during the scenic drive :((
I was watching the weather the whole week and last weekend is not the best, not typical of Page.
First the strong winds in Phoenix and Page affected and cancelled my flight, so I had to rent a car, drove from PHX to PGA, #$%$#&&^
Anyhow, we cannot control this, but just enjoy whatever's given to us.
Thank you for the compliments on the photos, I wish it was better position as you can see it was somewhat tilted due to me turning back to shoot.

Journey of Imagination...
it my turn for vacation in the canyons, staying in Page, Az for 3D2N at the Amangiri Resort. This place is quite spectacular, with 34 suites, the building nested at the foot of the canyons. They built the buildings using materials from the rocks, soil so ...

It definitely looks like Yoda! :)
Spectacular view from the cave, really stunning on such a nice day. Not sure if allowed but did you attempt to cross the iron rope bridge? -MW
Scenic drive and Plane ride...
Driving along Hwy 89, to Marble Canyon, Navajo Bridge and flying over Lake Powell, Rainbow Bridge and Horseshoe Bend. I was sitting by the plane wing so my photos are not so good, should be mindful next time to pick a better seat Later I went to HorseShoe...
WOW!!! So Cool!
Such a beautiful perspective from the skies above. You got some great shots especially of Horseshoe Bend and Rainbow Bridge. -MW
It was morning at 9am, some foggy areas but overall a pleasant ride.
Next up will be the slots canyons, with a private Navajo guide. They are really good in pointing out special features. Rgds Raymond
Did you get any rain?
In your last shot ("back in Armangiri and with yoda") the dark clouds off in the distance looks like a storm was headed your way. These 2 shots looks like paintings: You should definitely print them and hang them on the wall, IMO they are that good! -MW ...

re: scenic drive
That means you drove past Sedona and Flagstaff...lots of cool things to see there too! -MW
Aren't you glad you didn't go to PHX airport this week? =O

That is unbelievable....Thanks MW, you made my day. We should all see things
on the bright side, list this story: The Lost Horse 塞翁失馬 A man who lived on the northern frontier of China was skilled in interpreting events. One day for no reason, his horse ran away to the nomads across the border. Everyone tried to console him, but hi...
Wow!
Really, really cool pictures - looks like you\'re enjoying the trip a lot Curious to see what the next short one before Europe is... You and Ming are really the best ambassadors for the area
No comparison...
Raymond's travel is at a whole different level! The Armanigiri is very exclusive and from the pics he kindly shares you can tell why. -MW
Come on Dr MW....I'm just a nobody, can't wait till I'm on a walker before I travel :))
Many members here, just their single watch (price), can enjoy all these easily, all members are very blessed, fortunate and humble. I'm embarrassed now...just trying to share nice things. Rgds Raymond
No need for embarassment!
Happy you shared these - a wonderful place and definitely no need to be embarassed
OMG, pressure is raising :))
I used to take vacation 2-3x per year. Last year was the start of 4 vacations per year....I'm glad this year will be the same if not more ) Rgds Raymond
Next one will be ... Next weekend!
I'm just a regular guy who likes to balance work/life. This trip is really awesome. Rgds Raymond
Wow, what a spectacular place

It's an unforgettable trip for sure. Glad you like it, Ed.
I'm confirmed on attending the Quail, plan to stay at The Ventana Inn and Spa. Hope we can GTG there. Rgds Raymond
Slot Canyon Private Tour - Upper Antelope, Rattlesnake and Owl
These slot canyons are really special. We booked a private tour via Amangiri, so only the Navajo guide and us. The guide is very knowledgeable in setting the camera to capture the nice colors. He knows all the structures and features of each special attra...
