Day 14

As Day 14 begins, we are all sad to be leaving Margaritas in Creel, on a clear sunny day, where the Hotel staff have been great to us. Everyone is anxious to be off on an adventure. Today, we are going to Divisadero & more stunning views of Copper Canyon. Our first stop is at an overlook of the Oteras Canyon & River. Fabulous. 

 Continuing on our scenic trip to Divisadaro, we stop at the “Fertility” Rock for  a photo-op of this unique sculpture & one of the eighty six train tunnels on the Copper Canyon railroad. The scenery is never ending, never disappointing & always spectacular. 




 


  
 Our next stop is back at the Canyon close to the Tram & Zip Line, more great photo-ops. Can a person ever get tired of the views? I'm taking pictures on the outside observation deck. It's been an enjoyable day, finished off with a two for one happy hour & a three course meal.
















 


We watched a man bouncing on the Balancing Rock, as we all held our breath.











  


After a walk across a suspension bridge for lunch in Divisadaro, some of the Caravaners shared their lunch with the local children. The dogs made sure there were no scrapes left on the ground. We bought more baskets, wood carvings and t-shirts from the Tarahumara Indians who have been at every stop we have made today. It is now off to the Mirador Hotel. The Hotel is perched at the edge of the Canyon, every room has a spectacular view of Copper Canyon, including the outer terminus of the 1.9 mile (3000 meters) Tram as well as several portions of the Zip Line. Our time at the Mirador is free to explore the grounds & walk the many trails around the grounds. Several Caravaners partake in an escorted walk by a local guide. The Humming birds kept us entertained as they flittered around the bird feeders on the decks of the Hotel.
