Today we stopped at a couple of places along the Grand Canyon as we made our way back to Colorado. We drove to Cortez via Indian reservations (where we found that Indian’s live in squalor and it was quite sad to behold). We stopped for lunch near Utah and Monument Valley (which the Blomberg’s had never heard of) before I was allowed to drive a second time along some impressive scenery. I stopped at Four Corners which was very lame and marks the meeting point of Utah, Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico. Our journey for the day ended at Cortez in South West Colorado.
Beth and I went to Mesa Verde in the evening. Mesa Verde is an impressive Indian dwelling built into cliffs, we spent some time there and went on a walk for which we didn’t bring enough water and so panted to the end. I drove us down the mountain home and got told off for left foot braking… hmm. When we had had a little picnic half way down we drove home, swam and then went to bed.
