A round trip San Diego
San Diego - Scottsdale - Carefree (for the 2nd largest Sun Dial in the world) - Sedona/Oak Creek Canyon/Red Rock SP - Flagstaff (Grand Canyon, Monument Valley, Goose Neck State Park for the San Juan River Big Bend) - Glen Canyon/Lake Powell (completely missed Colorado River Big Bend because I did not even know it exists) - Marble Canyon - Zion(passed thru, been there before) - Las Vegas - LA - San Diego.
Stayed at Scottsdale 2 nights, Flagstaff 2 nights, Las Vegas 2 nights, Manhattan Beach 1 night, San Diego 1 night.
San Diego pure start and end point, no sightseeing as we have been there N times. LA for stopover and visited a friend for lunch - turned out a big mistake as that lunch made us spent close to 7 hours to get down to San Diego vs 2 hours when traffic is flowing.
