Day Trip Rec

Tayrusso

Morning girls!  Please rec your fave AZ day trip.  Our one year is approaching, and we've blown all disposable cash on renovations.  So that mini-moon to Mazatlan will not be happening and we need ideas!

I would say Sedona. I love that place. DH and I did a trip up there and hit up Jerome, Sedona, Slide Rock, and Flagstaff. It was a great trip. If not, there are some wineries in Chino Valley (I think) and my Aunt did a couple and had fun.

Come up to Prescott! The weather is gorgeous this time of year. We have adorable shops, amazing restaurants, good hiking/mountain biking, lakes for romantic picnics...we love it here!

Although, I will admit, Sedona is like no other place in the world. If you haven't been there yet, I'd say go go go!

I vote Sedona too!  Though there are so many places up North that are pretty-hope you have fun!

We've done Sedona a few times, and while it's gorgeous, we kinda got bored with it.  On our list of day-trips-to-do is Tombstone, the Southern AZ wineries, Grand Canyon Railway and the Biodome.  During the summer we usually do day trips to Flagstaff (hiking at snowbowl then lunch downtown).

We just did a southern AZ trip with another couple last weekend.  The Village of Elgin Winery had their Blessing of the Vines Festival, so we thought it'd be fun to go.  The festival was kinda small, so after we had lunch there and went through or wine sample tickets, we decided to head out to Tombstone.  We spent the rest of the day wandering in and out of shops and saloons and took a walking tour of an old silver mine.  It was a pretty fun afternoon. 

We rented a cute little place in Sonoita so we didn't have to drive back to Phoenix after what we thought would be a full day of wine tasting (www.casitadoleche.com).  I had whipped up a lasagna at home, so we just threw that in the casita's oven for a quick and easy dinner after a long day of doing the tourist thing.  We had brought all sorts of groceries along with us because we planned to take advantage of a full kitchen and not eat out--so glad we did because we couldn't find a grocery store or anything that stayed open later than 7:00!
