This stint was the longest drive we will have on this road trip. The only must-see thing for us on the way was the ghost town of Jerome, which is located only an hour's drive from Flagstaff. In Jerome there is an abandoned mine and around it has been built a little tourist attraction.
We got there early, just before opening time, and as it was Sunday, there were basically no other people but us. Just four employees and us, and on a sunny morning like this it was a delight for us and the kids. For the few dollars' entering fee I can highly recommend it for anyone interested in the history of the Old West.
At the dentist:
They even had goats the children were allowed to feed, some chickens and a possibility to pan for gold for a few dollars. The boys found gem stones on their pans and even a little gold nugget!
