Hello!
Day 7 was a long day of mostly driving, again. We drove through several Indian Reservations and saw lots of DUST! LOL! We did come upon a Wolf Sanctuary which was quite interesting. The tour guide walked us through the sanctuary where she introduced us to about 40 different wolves that have been "rescued". These wolves varied from wolf-dogs to Pure Bred Wolves. Some were tame enough to come up to the fence so we could see them up close....others were very much "wild" and feared us. We met one wolf who has recently been labeled "un-approachable"...to even the caretakers because he recently almost bit his caretaker's led off! This was a fun and educational "pit-stop" on our long journey to Sedona.
Around 5:30pm, we finally made it to Flagstaff. Only 30 more minutes to go!! Wait, what was that?? A puff of black smoke and a lurch of the van.... Yep, you guessed it- the transmission. We decided to try and make it to our Resort...about 30 minutes away. Little did we realize it would be 30 minutes of driving down the steepest, most winding mountain I (Jen) have ever seen! It was quite a nervous experience! We did make it and got checked into our resort. We grabbed a quick dinner at the "Red Planet Diner" (totally decked out in outer space deco), and then settled in for the night. In the morning we will have AAA tow our van and see about getting us a rental car. More on that tomorrow.
