On one hand we are sad and on the other hand we are happy. We are sad because we are leaving Sedona but we are happy because we still have a few more days of vacation. We got the car packed up and were on the road by 9am. We did make a couple of stops on the way back to Albuquerque. One of them was at Oak Creek Vista and what was great about this stop, was that there were Native Americans selling arts and crafts. Beautiful scenery and shopping … what a combination.
The drive back to Albuquerque seemed long. I think it was because we lost an hour due to a time zone change. There were high winds, and tumbleweeds were blowing across the highway. Beautiful scenery and blue skies the whole way.
We checked back into the Monterey Non-Smokers Motel and the the owner let us know that there was an accident at the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta today. We watched the news and learned that they had cancelled the Wells Fargo Special Shape Glowdeo but the AfterGlow Fireworks Show was still on.
We got to the Balloon Fiesta park and had just grabbed some dinner when the fireworks started. It was a twenty minute spectacular display. We finished up our dinner and ended up walking around the park.
The evening ended curling up in front of the tv and laptop. Hope the weather co-operates tomorrow, so that the balloons are able to go up.
