This was quite a trip, and the students reportedly took over 3300 pictures. On this website, some of the best are displayed. Even thought there is a story behind each picture for us, we think you will enjoy this chronicle of our trip. The photos are divided into groups, based on the sites we visited in the SW United States (see below).
Here we are taking a break from the sun at the Arizona-Sonoran Desert Museum in Tucson. |
As you look the photos on the pages linked below, be patient. Depending on the speed of your computer processor and the speed of your internet connection, each may take a minute or two to load. We hope you agree
that the wait was worth it. Each page has several
pictures as a thumbnail: just click on a picture to see a larger version.
