Trip to Sedona AZ - Day 1

We decided to go to Sedona in AZ for this spring vacation, before my job becomes much busier.
7 hours of flight time with 3 hours of time difference - I guess they don't use day time saving, and 2 hours of mountain drive from the Phoenix airport, finally we arrived in Sedona. The views from the car were stunning, surprising and beautiful. Up and down hills gave us a few times of ear pop-ups too.
After getting off route 17, the view totally changed to RED rocks. All the mountains and hills were RED.

We had dinner at close to the hotel bistro restaurant. Local beers and some good american food - burger and salmon. Bed early for early start on Saturday.
