The highlight of our trip to #tucson #arizona was the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum. You'll get to see hundreds of acres of desert, including plants and cacti from both the Sonoran and Mohave desert, similar to what you might find at Joshua Tree National Park. For more information on admission fee and when to visit, check my blog post: https://culturalfoodies.com/2019/12/31/what-to-do-and-where-to-eat-in-tucson-arizona/ We were delighted to find that this was quite literally the only thing in all of Tucson open on Christmas Day! #lifeatexpedia #travel #cacti #desert #arizona #museum #getoutdoors #optoutside
