Sedona where I was supposed to meditate @ 43rd Day

My day usually starts from drinking coffee.

This morning, I went to "Rendezvous Coffee House", which a hostel staff recommended me in Flagstaff downtown.



They use wood for the counter and it makes me warm.

I ordered latte as usual.


Outside of the cafe, I found a public clock, but it stopped...

A little bad

Flagstaff is pretty old town (at most 200 years).

Buildings are made of bricks. Historical route 66 is also located next to downtown.


After wondering Flagstaff, I said good-bye and headed for Sedona.

On the way, AZ-89 highway is along rock and winding.


I noticed that Flagstaff is in much higher place (7000 ft) than Sedona (4000 ft).

There is almost 3000 ft (1km) difference of altitude between 2 places.

I am great(!?) driver, so I didn't have any accidents.
 

When I thought the road becomes open, I saw ROCKs in front of me.

The car you can see in this picture isn't my car, but similar one.


I stopped by visitor information center.

I heard Chapel of the Holy Cross Point is nice view to see Sedona.

As soon as I got that info, I went to that point.




This seems Snoopy Rock.

Because I look this rock just in front, I can't tell this is Snoopy shape.

As I take a scrutiny, there are a lot of face-similar shape.

Don't you know with this picture?? 


In the right side, there are upright rocks.

I was surprised when I thought these rock were made by nature.

How come were they made??


 

In the other side , I could see Bell Rock, which has special spiritual power, vortex, I heard.


Today I would hike this rock!!
 
Before hiking, I had to put something in my stomach.

I saw unusual colored McDonald's in this city.


It's not yellow but blue.

The food doesn't seem delicious by watching this logo.


Well, let's go hiking!

Not only I but also many people go hiking or bicycling.


In the half of Bell Rock, I gave up even several people were in the top.

Actually I slipped in the rock, and I thought if I continue, I might be in dangerous situation.


In the middle of Bell Rock, I meditated...

Did I feel something special power??

Umm, no, I didn't.

I may have needed more meditation...  

At last I also said good-bye to Sedona after seeing big rock during sunset time.

 

I drove for 2 hours from Sedona to Phoenix.

In Phoenix, I ate Vietnamese food which made me curious.

I always eat Thai food (and like Thai food), but I've never tried other Southeastern country's food.

I'm sorry, I forgot to take a picture of this soup.

I liked this one, except for green vegetable...

It is JALAPENO!!

I cried and was sweated and sweated.


All things were eaten by me!



I don't wanna be folded by such a green thing!!
