West Trip - Day 7

Location start/finish: Sedona - drive to Vegas
Activities: sightsee, drive, drive, drive, last dinner, last night

On our final morning in Sedona, we planned to see one sight and then get on the road. (We had a long haul to Vegas.) We enjoyed our final B&B breakfast before loading up. I cannot say enough good about the food there - it was phenomenal!
The last thing for us to see while in Sedona was the Chapel of the Holy Cross. It was beautiful driving up to it, as it's carved into the rock.
The inside of the chapel is likely what you'd expect, but spectacular all the same.
Once that was checked off of our list, we had to face the four+ hour drive back to Vegas. The kids did listen to a few podcasts with us though, and they even enjoyed one, in spite of themselves.
When we arrived, we'd already planned to have our final dinner of the trip be In-N-Out burger, so we checked into the hotel quickly and walked right over.
The big kids had a plan to each get a Double Double AND a single. Unfortunately for them, our order was slightly wrong, so they *only* got their Double Doubles. (Such a tragedy.)

We walked the streets of Vegas - shopping for the kids - for a bit longer until the heat did us in. (It was over 100-degrees that day.) Eventually we gave in and returned to the hotel where thee kids were wowed by the size of our room. When we initially checked in, the room wasn't ready so they upgraded us. They ohhhed and ahhhed for a bit before I put Ruby in the bath and Lehr took them out for their final night on the town.
The main reason to go out was the Eye in the Sky, which Lehr and the big kids had planned on since the beginning. They rode it, but didn't enjoyed it as much as they thought they might. Lehr followed that up by a HUGE dessert treat. So big that Maddux didn't even eat much of it at all!
