In the afternoon we visited Montezuma's castle. It wasn't actually a Mexican hideout but was used by Indian from about 1200-1499.

 

 We then visited Jerome, an old mining town that turned into a ghost town. Then the New Age hippies turned up and it's now a thriving town. We had a tea there where they wore T shirts with "This whole town is high" on them. This was of one of the gardens,
