After leaving the Grand Canyon on the 3rd Day

Leaving the Grand Canyon behind, we headed to Kayenta, in Navajo County, Arizona. It was located about 300 km away from the Grand Canyon. On our way of driving to Kayenta, we dropped in several places. The first place we dropped in was a native Indian souvenir shop. They sold many beautiful goods for reasonable prices. The scenery from the shop was also very nice.


After that, we visited Tuba City, Arizona to fill up gas in our car. And also, we bought a bottle of water, some fruits and some snacks at the drugstore run by native Indian. I love to see and eat fruits in foreign countries beacause they are almost, always, very different from those of Japanese.
Rina was holding a pear. The shape of pears and the shape of watermelons were quite different from that of Japanese ones. The color of apples was much darker than that of Japanese ones.

Kayenta is located immediately south of Monument Valley. Monument Valley is located on the southern border of Utah with northern Arizona.
We could see Monument Valley in the evening after four hours driving from the Grand Canyon. It was a bit cloudy, though I impressed the scenery and color of the ground.
We went to the restaurant that served native Indian dishes. We had native Indian steak, hamburger, pizza and drinks.
