Our Southwest Trip

Hello Everyone!

It's been quite hectic these couple of weeks after coming home from our 17 day trip to the Southwest. My husband, baby girl and I drove to Arizona (Sedona specifically), New Mexico, drove through Colorado and went to Utah to visit family. Compared to last year, the weather was awesome ... not too hot or too cold. I have to say, though, that this trip, besides our Italy trip 5 years ago, is one of the best. I LOVE New Mexico with its beautiful landscape, architecture, and the people are so easy going! We visited so many different areas and stayed to some nice bed and breakfast places. Here are just a couple of images that I'd like to share.

Beautiful Sedona, Arizona:






The Painted Desert at Petrified Forest (you have to actually see how magnificent this looks!)






Albuquerque, New Mexico...I love the red chilies!






Here are a couple of the bed and breakfast places that we stayed at:
