Meteor Crater Pat, SE, Kids

Tuesday we left for Flagstaff to visit Meteor Crater, the Grand Canyon & ski at the Snowbowl. Nasa trained the astronauts for the Apollo Mission at Meteor Crater


a partial view of the crater below

Pat, SE, Pasquale and Maddalena going to the floor of the crater

a family shot as they are on their way to the base

looking out from the rim of the crater - miles of desert then mountains appearing in the distance

a photo of the crater

We have traveled Route 66 a lot. In fact, it cuts through the land leading to the crater

This was an old jail on Rte. 66

a couple of old cars just left to waste away - the one on the right has the Rte. 66 insignia

here is Pasquale at the base of the crater
