Day 79

Chris Fuming Over the Car Rental

Booger Box

Part 1:  The Car

Chris pre-arranged everything for the car, called to set up a pick-up 24 hours in advance and...it all went very wrong.  We were expecting someone at 11 a.m.  That time rolled on by.  At 11:02 Chris was on the phone trying to figure the situation out.  The person at the car rental place clearly refused to answer the phone and the customer care agent felt that it was appropriate to blame Chris, the customer!  Needless to say, there will be no rentals from Budget in our future!

But, we got the car and boy was it attractive.  You can see the photo above.  I named it "The Booger Box".  And when this car was speeding up to pass someone, we yelled, "Ah, Choo!"

Sedona, AZ

The Diamond Resorts

The Kitchenette

Part 2:  Sedona

The drive from Scottsdale to Sedona is only about 1.5 hours and the drive is pretty.  We had received a free 2 night stay at a Diamond Resorts after we sat through a timeshare presentation.  The pictures show the place...it was very nice!

Dinner at Relics

Do You Spot a Ghost Inside?

Part 3:  Dinner at Relics

Recommended by the Concierge at the hotel, we ventured onto Relics for dinner.  This is where John Wayne would frequent at one point.  It is rumored to have ghost sightings!  No ghosts while we were there, but the dinner was mighty yummy!

Kona Watching TV

Meanwhile...while the cat's away, the mice will play!  Our housesitter sent us this photo of Kona, on the couch, watching TV!!!
