Arizona {Day 5, 6, and 7}

This trip season has been SO relaxed and chill.  We have been sleeping in, eating good food and just enjoying spending time together.  We have had fun exploring Phoenix and the surrounding communities of Mesa (where Brock lives), Tempe (where he goes to ASU), Chandler and Scottsdale.  Each one has a uniquely different feel and it’s been fun to see them all.


We had a good mix of touristy things and a good mix of just relaxing and being together and it’s been great!  

We went to the Phoenix zoo and it was incredible.  It was a beautiful day and we spent 4 hours there looking at all of the animals.





It was not crowded at all when we went.  Admission was $29.95 and they have reduced admissions for students and kids.  If you are in Phoenix a visit to the zoo is a great way to spend an afternoon!

Right next door is the Desert Botanical Gardens which are also beautiful.    We only had time to visit the gift shop but on our next trip I’d love to tour the whole place.  I love the desert landscape.  In the gift shop we got a little cactus for Brock and a gift for my mother in law.





Merry Christmas Eve!  We are soaking up the sun and the last few days with Brock.
