We (Wife and I) visited the US from June the 22nd to July the 6th .
Wow, what a great Vacation/Honeymoon Trip!
We visited most of the famous Places in North Arizona and south Nevada, drove 3.000 Miles through the Desert of the Southwest.
It was more a geological and an archeological Trip than a Herping Trip.
I saw very less Herps, not only about my wife, there were also other reasons, but later.
Let`s start with some Landscape and Indian housing pics.

We arrived Phoenix at night and drove to Sedona the “Capital of the Red Rock County” .

The main reason for that Trip was the 10th anniversary of our wedding.
We married at the same place, same church, same Date, same Time in 2004 and we have done it again in2014.
And don`t ask for it, there was no Elvis around!!! Only the Spirit – Viva Las Vegas!!!

The Antelope Canyon was definitive on of the Highlights of the Trip, but there was also no weak Point!

Some more Antelope pics.

brilliantly, really brilliantly.
Thank's for sharing.

best regards Manni

Fantastic places! And it´s nice to see a woman that can stay with a viper addict so many time!! I hope to be so lucky

Very very nice Jürgen!

Damn Jürgen, you look really handsome in a suit like that, your wife is lucky! Looking forward to the rest of your photos, these landscapes are crazy already!

Those landscapes bring back a few memories, although your pics of Antelope Canyon are much better than mine. I wonder if the Collared Lizard I saw at Wupatki will turn up in your pics looking forward to the rest.

Great !

Amazing scenery and nice suit Jürgie! Hope you can show us at least some Crotalus pictures
