Preliminary Itinerary -  (as this journey unfolds you will be given updates and additional information)

Monday - September 13, 2010:

7:30 AM - Leave Dobson Ranch Inn and travel to Sedona where we will drop our luggage at the Sedona Real Inn & Suites.  We will meet our tour guide,  Daka Rasa for lunch at Delish.   After lunch,  we will spend the afternoon exploring the beautiful Red Rock country known as the Verde Valley  thorough his eyes and from his heart, tapping into the spiritual experiences that he has lined up for us.  These will include guided meditation at powerful vortex sites (easy to medium hiking experiences), photo shoot opportunity at the Chapel in the Red Rocks,  Airport Mesa, Tlaquepaque.   In the late afternoon we will travel through the Verde Valley to Jerome for sunset and dinner.   We will return to our hotel at about 8:30 or 9 pm for a good night's sleep and sweet dreaming.

Tuesday - September 14: 

Rise and Shine!!  We leave our hotel at about 6:30 am for the ride through Oak Creek Canyon and Flagstaff on our way to the Grand Canyon - one of nature's most awe-inspiring wonders.   Along the way we will visit Sunset Crater and Wupatki, two national monuments.  We will enjoy lunch at a historic Cameron Trading Post   and then enter the Grand Canyon National Park on the East Side.   Starting with the famous Desert View Watchtower to the Yavapai Observation Station to the El Tovar Hotel and the Bright Angel Hotel and Trail,  everyone will love the different views of the Grand Canyon.   On our way back to Sedona, around 4 pm,  we will stop at the Explore the Canyon IMAX Theater to enjoy the show - dessert to our feast of nature.  This is a wonderful final narrative to all that we have seen.  We will arrive back in Sedona around 7 pm.

Wednesday - September 15: 

Choose from an early morning hike (easy trekking) starting at 6 am with Rasa, or for the really light weights you can take the morning off!!  It is a free day until later in the afternoon.  Hike,  shop,  sleep in,  explore or just bask by the pool.   Then at about 1:30 we will meet Daka Rasa  a  powerful Cacao Ceremony and group dinner at one of my favorite restaurants on the planet ,  the very cozy, intimate and organic Thai Spices.   

Thursday - September 16:

Check out,  load up and depart at noon for Phoenix airport or Dobson Ranch Inn.   Please arrange flight schedules accordingly so we can coordinate our time.
