Monument Valley

We reluctantly depart Goose Neck state park early in the morning, but not before we have seen the sunrise.

We are headed to Monument Valley, and have been told about a tour that starts at 9am.  We have many photo stops along the way..

But despite this, we make it in time for the tour (just).

I'm a bit reluctant to sign up for the tour, being somewhat cynical, and yes there are Navajo jewelry stalls at each stopping point, but no-one hassles you and makes you feel like you should buy something.

We see all the iconic sites, and get all the background details on which locations have been used for which movie, so overall it was well worth doing, and we both enjoyed it very much.
