One of the rare trees, with a lot of red sand.

"The Three Sisters" of the Monument Valley. It is easy to understand why Monument Valley ranks high among the icons of the American Southwest. The valley also belongs to the Navajo Nation, who still use it as tribal park.

Our Pontiac at the Monument Valley. After our sidetrip it was covered with red dust and looked really dirty. Fortunately, that dust went away rather quickly.

At the end of this day we arrived in the small village of Mexican Hat, directly at the border between Arizona and Utah. We stayed at Burch's Inn and enjoyed a fantastic steak dinner on the patio of the "Swingin' Steak Restaurant". Yummy!
