The Grand Canyon

The Grand Canyon is amazing. Before we entered the park we watched the IMAX movie about some of the people who first explored the canyon. Talk about crazy! I can't imagine getting on a wooden raft and heading down a river that you didn't know anything about. John Wesley Powell was nuts...and he only had one arm.

For only $2 more, we also watched a bird show which included a falcon, hawk, condor, crane and money taking crow (I think it was a crow--it was black).
You can't take enough pictures of the Grand Canyon.


 
I don't have much to say about all these pictures. It was spectacular and amazing and beautiful and on and on. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Most of the time. It was a little hot and we did a little bit of walking and sometimes the buses were crowded and sometimes we didn't get our way....
 but it was definitely worth the trip.
