Onwards to Phoenix ...

Having spent a couple of days in LA we took a comparatively tiny internal flight (1 hour) to spend a week with Gareth, Lizzy, Daisy, Lucy, & Toby. They live in Anthem, Phoenix which is hot... VERY hot - one day it reached 108, which was surprisingly very nice!!!

Anthem is a little bit like the Truman show - everything is perfectly groomed, clean and nothing looks out of place (apart from us!). We had fun driving around the community in the borrowed golf buggy - it had be seen to be believed!

The took us to Sedona which was absolutely stunning - we had a great lunch out in a wonderful sandwich shop, followed by swimming in a very beautiful (but cold) creek. I played golf with Gareth and Mike B, and shot a very convincing 76 at a very posh country club! Laura and Lizzy had lovely massages in return!
