Most people don't stray far from the view points (yours truly excluded, I have to admit).

I'm standing in the parking lot with my laptop propped on the lip of the trunk as I'm typing this.

If I ever do I'll need to find out how to get into more remote areas, as it would *really* be impressive to see this without a railing and hordes of other tourists.Alanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13393082652312828458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1615100786320943903.post-6854040041323677972012-07-26T08:56:24.733-07:002012-07-26T08:56:24.733-07:00Lovely photos!

Such a breathtaking sight no matter how many times you see it (extra points for working in the Agave shot too!). <br /><br />In addition to the free wifi that doesn't actually exist I love the wifi that is there but kicks you off every 63 seconds when someone new tries to connect.
