After the dam tour we briefly checked out the marina but didn’t stay long since the restaurant wasn’t open so we headed east to the Dutch John Resort for a nice sit down lunch before heading west to the Red Canyon Overlook. Wow! What incredible views. The visitor center is a wealth of information on the history of the area but what took our breath away was the amazing views! From inside the visitor center you can look out the huge plate glass windows at the canyon but even more impressive is the short loop walk out to the canyon’s edge. We were grateful for some stout fencing that allowed us to get close to the edge safely. We lingered a while just drinking in the beauty. There’s great camping in the area and we’d enjoy making this a destination for a longer stay something when the weather is a little cooler.
A lovely way to spend a Sunday in Hampstead. We visited the historic Fenton House to view lots of lovely collectibles, to listen to and learn about harpsicords, and to tour and linger in the garden before heading off to the historic Spaniard’s Inn for a most delectable Sunday Roast.
A visit to the London Transport Museum in Covent Garden gave us insight into the evolution and role of public transportation in the creation of London as a great metropolitan area.
Bath, England is an amazingly inviting place with deep deep history. One little day trip isn’t anywhere near enough but we did enjoy delving into the history of the Roman Baths, basking in the beauty of Bath Abbey, and topping our visit off with Tea and Bath Buns!
