Francis
This Navajo gentleman visited every day and would hang out with us. Due to a car accident he is deft and is mute. Talking to him is like playing charades. He's a really friendly guy and apparently doesn't see any problem with the politically incorrect 'Indians' logo which some seem to think is insensitive. Francis loves the Indians logo and wears the cap all the time. I met another Navajo who is a diehard Chiefs fan and loves that logo too.

White Mesa
The Navajo nation is a beautiful place. Filled with mesa's all around and cool smaller scale grand canyon type of landmarks. This view was from one of our VBS locations.

Happy Dude
One of the Navajo kids attending VBS. I think his name was Rueben.

Piggy Back
One our High School students 'Jacob' carrying around a little Navajo girl during games.

Your trip must have been quite inspirational. Will we be seeing any Navajo inspired designs and illustrations? Haha. =)
It does look beautiful. Great photos. Cheers!
Nice pics, Kaibeto is indeed a wonderful place to visit. I visited that place twice now and from my own experience it liked it there. The navajo tribe is a fascinating tribe to read up on and someday i would like to return there to visit again.
