The first day of my trip started at 6:15 am with a friend picking me up and taking me to Cleveland Hopkins Airport. I pretty much spent the whole day in airports. A 4 hour layover in Las Vegas. It was very exhausting with a lot of mishaps and learning how to navigate them. Needless to say when I finally reached my hotel and my actual room more mishaps followed. When things finally settled down I slept from 4 pm to about 9 pm. Watch some TV and then slept again till morning.
My first full day in Phoenix started when a request to go on an all day tour to several places was rejected by the tour guide so I had to figure something else out.
At first I looked into renting a car but it was too expensive so I did the Uber thing and visited the Desert Botanical Gardens.
It was a wonderful place. I was so exhausted when I got back and attempts to order food delivery failed, so I ate at the hotel bar restaurant. My choice of food was absolutely excellent.
After that I watched some tv and then slept for 4 hours. These photos are of the garden. I was there for about 3 hours. I didn't see all that I wanted to see, but I was too tired to see more.
Oh yeah, I'm in Phoenix because my niece is getting married on Friday in Sedona.
