      Day Three-Mexican Hat

      June 26, 2023 in the United States ⋅ 🌬 37 °C

      Slept 😴 💤 Great woke up around 7:20. Leisurely got us and the bus ready for today's trip. We decided to go back to Fredrico's for breakfast Greg got the Ultimate breakfast burrito and I got the Chorizzo (cheese, potato and egg) they were Humongous. Could have split one and still had leftovers. Again the Best Mexican food I have ever had. Today we are headed to Mexican Hat. A short 5 hour drive compared to what we have been doing. We just reached 7000 ft in elevation my ears are popping.data. Entered Arizona at 2:05pm. Greg decided to take the bus off roading. He saw a bunch of trails down by the river we crossed over so he decided to check it out. We got to place in the very narrow path where it seemed to be exceedingly muddy. Greg got out to walk it and came back covered in mud. He hadto back out for a bit then got the bus turned around. We are now back on the road 20 minutes from Mexican Hat. Fingers crossed we find a camping spot. Arrived at Mexican Hat 4:03. Drove down to the river very narrow, winding, steep roads, not sure we would get back up. Went to the end of the road to the last campsite. You could see the river and completely surrounded by towering red cliffs and Mexican Hat behind us. The wind was blowing so hard (about 40mph) it almost knocked you down. The sand was being blown around and giving us a Great dermabrasion :) The temperature was 99 and kinda hard to breathe, Miserably Hot!!! The clouds were getting dark and we were afraid if it rained we would never get out. So we decided to move to higher ground. We camped for the night still in Mexican Hat but on much higher ground. Once the sun went down we opened the windows and it got nice and cool in the bus for sleeping 😴Read more
