Woke up very early again. Went to Waffle House for breakfast then dropped Marisa off. Then I headed off on another expedition, this time to the south. Firstly I travelled west on the I-10 and then south on the AZ-85 to Gila Bend. From here I drove down through Midway, Ajo and Why. From Why I travelled further south to Lukesville through the Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. Needless to say, I saw a very large number of cacti. It turns out that Lukeville is on the US/Mexican border, so I took a couple of shots looking over into Mexico and then headed back. This time the plan was to take a more eastern route through the Indian reservation. I was stopped by the Sherriff’s dept for a sobriety check, which basically involved a couple of questions and handing me a leaflet. A while later on the Indian reservation, I was stopped by the border patrol and had to show my passport.
I arrived a bit early picking up Marisa and sat through the last part of her class. We headed back to the malls to pick up one or two items we forgot about yesterday. We had dinner (very nice) at a restaurant called the “Melting Pot” which does fondue as its main feature. We headed back to the hotel and I figured out what I’m going to take Marisa to see today before we fly back.
