Day 3 in AZ

Off to hike up a mountain (we made it sorta far?!? ;) ) And then treat ourselves to "the best pizza in the world" (according to Oprah) at Pizzeria Bianco. Kate and I waited in line to get a spot on the list. The line begins forming at around 3:00 and there are 10 tables inside. Our total waiting time? We were seated at 8.
