As our plans for an Arizona vacation firmed up I decided to look for activities that would be fun for the kids. I found a "creatures of the night desert tour" that coincided our vacation with a bonus full moon. Sold!
So we got directions from our hosts and ventured out. The tour was to run from 7 until 9 and we left at 6:30.
First we went to the wrong park. Obviously we're tourists... Then we went to the mailing address of the park which was essentially a police station. Then we went to another address associated with the web page and that was a county park truck depot.
At the truck depot we ran into two other families who were equally confused. We followed them to the park visitor center and decided to follow them.
Now the kids were less than enthusiastic by this point and we were 30 minutes late but we decided to venture out anyway.
So the daylight faded as we hiked a lovely trial and saw these sights. Best part was seeing the moon come up over the mountain framed by saguaro cactai.
