Thursday, May 1, 2008 - Day Five, and Final Day, on the Road

Thursday morning we left Albuquerque headed for our final destination...Scottsdale, AZ!!! This day was easier, we knew the end was in sight. It also helped that the view and scenery were gorgeous. The mountains and views were breathtaking!! The number of cactus along the side of the road was amazing, again, check out the pictures!! We arrived at our hotel in Scottsdale, AZ at about 4:30pm PST. We changed time zones throughout the trip, and only one was actually posted along the side of the road. Thank goodness our cell phones picked up the time zone changes because our navigation system didn't!!

We were very thankful to arrive, and thankful that we had a successful and safe trip across country. The drive really wasn't that bad, books on tape did help!! We enjoyed the scenery (or lack there of at times), the company and laughing at poor Bayley every now and then. She was very vocal about her dismay that we did not allow for more room for her. I think she was comforted in the fact that we didn't have much more space than we did. Scott did notice a "settling" of everything in the car as each day went by. He was very proud of his packing job!!
