1. Bi-plane air tour around Sedona
|
|
| The rugged country looks so much different from the air! You can see more area than by car or on foot, and it's beautiful! |

2. Nearby Jerome historic mining town
|
|
This town perched on a mountain is charming, rugged and fun. It's sort of coming awake, so it's not too commercialized yet. Worth the drive from Sedona. |

3. Climb Cathedral Rock
|
|
| Yes, you can do it! Take your time and rest when you need to. The view from the top is glorious both ways, and you'll feel proud! |

4. Southwest food and culture - not in Sedona
|
|
| We were surprised that Sedona has little culture of its own. No southwest cuisine that we found. A few Mexican restaurants. Apparently, Sedona cuisine is steaks and burgers. Surprisingly little real-world shopping, so any new t-shirt would have "Sedona" or "Life is good" on it. I guess the locals drive to Phoenix. I'm not saying that Sedona isn't fun to visit; it's just not Santa Fe. |
