Snapshot of America: Phoenix & Tucson
Good Morning & Hello Tuesday!!!
Have been in AZ for almost a week, happily ensconced at one of my all-time favorite hotels. And must express my gratitude to all the people I’ve met and connected with over the last week – so friendly and welcoming! Much appreciated.
Phoenix is not new to me. I’ve been here numerous times but it has certainly changed over the last few years. This is my first time back since the start of the Phoenix boom (Phoenix was the fastest-growing big city in the U.S. between 2010 and 2020).
This trip was planned to coincide with Brad’s recent museum exhibitions (#10 below). But my itinerary was also chock-a-block with new things to check out including emerging neighborhoods and trendy new scenes, e.g., coffee and car events which are all the rage in Phoenix.
The only downside has been the heat (which absolutely does not agree with me) and I am also not a fan of having to do so much driving (odd, I know, since I LOVE car culture!).
Scroll down for highlights and best tips and recommendations should any of you be planning to travel to AZ later this year.
