I got my bags packed on a roll. I'm heading out there and I'm ready to go. Looking real good in my passport photo.

Oh no.

Amateur Traveler episode 700. Today the amateur traveler talks about Spanish

explorers Native Americans, a volcano crater, cactus, and canyons of various sizes, one really grand and one really, really small

as we go to the national parks of Arizona.

Welcome to the Amateur Traveler.

I'm your host Chris Christensen, and this is indeed episode 700 of the Amateur Traveler

as we approach the 15th year anniversary.

So let's celebrate, yay!

And now let's get back to work.

Let's talk about Arizona.

I'd like to welcome back to the show Gary Art from everything dash everywhere

dot com who's come to talk to us about Arizona national parks. Gary welcome

back to the show. Thank you for the, what is it, 15 or 16 time?

I don't know how many times.

So, and it's not like it's been that long

since I've talked to Gary, Gary, and I also

have been co-hosting this week and travel with a couple other friends for 10 years now so we get to

talk periodically.

But you pitched me going to Arizona and seeing National Parks. I would say why should someone do that but you already

said national parks.

So Arizona just has the Grand Canyon, right?
