Flagstaff

Flagstaff is a university town, north of us by about 2 hours, and is one of those places which gets better every time you visit. On friday evenings throughout the summer they have been showing family movies in the town square, so we decided to go up for a visit. We found a fabulous brewery for food, were entertained by belly dancers and snake charmers(!), wandered round quaint shops (Christmas has arrived already there....), and then took our deckchairs to the square. We only made it to the interval though, as we froze to death!! It was great to be in fleeces and jeans, but we still could have done with jackets or blankets!!
Then a fun night all piled in one room in a hotel, and the next day headed up to Mount Humphrey (where we ski in the winter) for a little hike around our favourite nursery slopes. Sadly the chair lift was not operating because of storms, but it was wonderful to be cold for a few hours.....
Then, back to the heat again!!!
