Friday dawned a *little* less hot, only mid 90’s. 😂 Paul and I had an entire day free to explore Phoenix. We did a little shopping, had an amazing lunch at Chompie’s, an authentic New York Deli chain in PHX, and then we went to the aquarium! But not to see fish…they were hosting a special travelling exhibition of Bodies Revealed! Learn all about the exhibit here.

I have wanted to see this show since I lived in Phoenix twelve years ago. I always missed it though, in Kansas and around the country. But it was amazingly worth it! The process they use to preserve the tiniest of veins and nerves is unbelievable. Paul was a trooper, medical things are not his cup of tea, but he knew how much I wanted to see this. 😘

After the bodies exhibit, we made our way back across town to a dinner of Panda Express and an early night at the hotel.

Did you know? The city of Phoenix has a little over 1 million people…but the greater metro area has 4.7 million! 😮
