So This Is Arizona :D

We went to Phoenix, Arizona for our getaway trip, kind of celebrating our 10 months ;) It was super fun trip! :D & Here is the travel details..

Fri 5/22
We drove to Phoenix in the memorial day weekend. Leave Vegas about 8 in the morning and didn't stop much except the cute lil town of wickenburg. Got to our hotel at about 3ish and went straight to Arizona Science Center. It was soo much fun! Totally recommended to go! We went to the planetarium too and saw a show about black holes. Pretty wicked!

We went to downtown Tempe that night and hit Mill Avenue and had some frozen yogurt. Yummy!

5/23
The next day we went to the ZOO! Phoenix Zoo was so AWESOME! We walked around (took the safari train too) and just had soo much fun looking at the animals. They look very happy and well cared too. The zoo people definitely are doing a really good job. :)

After having a great time at the Zoo, we went to have mexican restaurant at a local place nearby. Very good mexican food!

That night we went to Scottsdale! We hit Borgata at Scottsdale. Most stores are closed tho :( .. weird since it was Saturday night! But we went to other mall nearby called Fashion Square. This one is huge mall. There is this cafe called P.B.Loco thats basically sell everything with peanut butter. Jason was very happy to find a sandwich with bacon and peanut butter.. Then we went to a fine dining restaurant name Bandera. Pretty good beef ribs and roasted chicken. But the portion were small for the Ahi Tuna. But Scottsdale is definitely a cute ~ nice ~ upper neighborhood town that has super adorable houses.

5/24
That morning we went to walk at downtown Phoenix, the Arizona Center. We walk around the shops and then we went back to Fashion Square since Jason decided to buy 'the camera' at Sony Store.. And of course getting another of that bacon-peanut butter sandwich ;)

We start heading back to Vegas after all that and we stopped at Kingman to have a late lunch at Cracker Barrel. SUPER great FOOD.
We got home at like 8.30ish because traffic was helded up at hoover dam (there was an accident there). But we are back here in Vegas. It was super fun vacation! :D But we missed Vegas



Location: Phoenix, Tempe, Scottsdale, Glendale, Kingman
