We decided to leave overrun Sedona and make it to Page, Arizona where the famous Antelope Canyon is located.
The drive took is through stunning scenery and we made several stops to do landscape photography and to look at some stands with Navajo pottery and jewelry.
We found outstanding pottery and woven rugs at the Cameron Gallery, but these pieces of art at several thousand dollars apiece, where definitely not impulse buys.
On our next stop we were fascinated by the red and grey mountains with spots of green vegetation.
The last stop before Page had us overlooking a tremendous plain with canyon and a mountain range in the background. The grey clouds made for dramatic scenery. Navajo jewelry stands are everywhere.
We tried to book a photography tour of Antelope canyon, but unfortunately they were all booked out. One tour company had space the following week and another told us we had to book 6 months to a year in advance. We had an option to book an Antelope Canyon sightseeing tour at 5:30PM the next day, but weren’t sure about the weather forecast and decided against it.
The visitor centre was our next stop, but it had closed at 4:30PM so we opted for a stone baked pizza at a small Italian restaurant across the street.
Our next task was to find a site for the night and we found a great camping spot on Lake Powell. Lake Powell was formed in the 1960s when the Glen Canyon Dam was built.
