After our whirlwind 1-day tour of northern Arizona, the Saltire still wanted visit one of Phoenix's coolest parks before it flew off to its next destination. So off we went to Papago Park - home of the Phoenix Zoo, Desert Botanical Garden, headquarters for the Arizona National Guard & the couple of landmarks pictured below.

The Saltire & the descriptively named, Hole-in-the-Rock.


Gov. Hunt's pyramid - where Arizona's first state Governor & his wife are buried.



Arizona is well-known for its colorful sunsets. This one is fairly mundane by local standards, but still not bad.



Finally, the Saltire kept "needling" me about getting a picture with a saguaro - the giant of the desert. I told it to be careful, these big guys can be a bit prickly.



Th-th-that's all, folks!
