Today was as magical as it gets. Every day I say this is the highlight of our trip...and then it keeps getting better and better. We booked a private “Dreamcatcher” Tour of Monument Valley. It started at 5 pm and ended about 9:30. The lighting, our guide, the warm evening winds, the music, the dancing, the food, wow - what an evening.
The gals getting ready for an adventure.
The scenery was surreal. The deeper we went into the valley, the more spectacular the formations were. Our guide, Jamie, pointed out animal shapes in the rocks, told us Navajo stories, played the flute inside a big hogan, and called into the mountains as they echoed back.
I kissed a dragon rock...
Sylvia touched the totem pole!
We saw petroglyphs from the Anasazi civilization.
We watched day turn into evening as the majestic red rocks took on a golden hue.
Our guide took us to a place nestled against the rocks. A dinner was waiting just for the two of us! Indian fry bread tacos and steak.
And then we had a private show of chanting, singing and dancing.
We talked around the campfire with Jamie until the last embers burned out. Just magical.
How can you not love this gal?!
