After Roswell the plan was to drive to Tuscon in Arizona.
Which we did.
The rest of the plan was to go to the Presidio Historical District as the LPG recommended it as worth seeing for the 19th century buildings and craft stores.
Which we didn't.
Well actually we did. What I mean is we went there and drove around the area the LPG talked about but it wasn't even worth getting out of the car for. We saw maybe one old building and definitely no craft stores.
So we went but we didn't, if you know what I mean.
This just meant that we got to Scottsdale a bit earlier and had more time to relax in the room.
I jumped on the treadmill again but was uninspired as the two hours of Bones that is usually on at that time (and keeps me in the fitness room longer) wasn't on!!!!!!! Very disappointing I can tell you. Law and Order was on instead. Not really into that show anymore although later in the night there was an old episode with Emily Deschanel (Bones) in it.
Despite that disappointment I did get to watch the Christmas episode of Bones, so that made up for it.
Seeing as how this blog is about my travels and not Bones (although I realise this post may sound otherwise) I should get back to that.
So we stayed in Scottsdale the night and got up early to visit Taliesin West. You may remember that when I was in Wisconsin with Nicola we visited Taliesin, Frank Lloyd Wright's school/home. Well this one is where he lived in the winter months. And the architectural school does the same thing. Half the year in Wisconsin and the other half in Arizona. Anyway it was a great tour and the buildings were amazing. I won't go on about it because most people won't find it that interesting (unlike all my other posts which obviously are) but you can see for yourself in the photos.
