THE GRAND CANYON

MIKEY AND I DID A ROADTRIP TO SEE THE GRAND CANYON. WE GOT TO THE CANYON ABOUT 2PM AND DID A THREE MILE HIKE ALONG THE RIM, AND THEN RETURNED THE NEXT MORNING TO VIEW THE CANYON IN THE MORNING LIGHT.

WITH SPRING BREAK THE CANYON WAS VERY BUSY AND WE SPENT WAY TOO MUCH TIME LOOKING FOR A  PARKING PLACE. THE EARLY MORNING VISIT WAS MUCH BETTER, EVEN IF WE DID HAVE TO WEAR LONG PANTS.

WE STOPPED ON THE WAY OUT TO VIEW THE IMAX MOVIE SO WE COULD SEE THE HISTORY AND WHAT THE BOTTOM OF THE CANYON LOOKS LIKE.

 

I JUST HAD TO CREEP OUT TO THE EDGE LIKE THE KIDS AND LOOK OVER THE EDGE, EXCEPT THE KIDS ARE SITTING ON THE EDGE KICKING THEIR FEET. 

THE GRAND CANYON IS THE MOST AMAZING HOLE IN THE GROUND ON EARTH. 277 MILES LONG, 10 MILES ACROSS, AND A MILE DEEP. THERE ARE NO PICTURES, ART PAINTINGS, OR VIDEOS THAT REALLY SHOW THE GRAND CANYON, YOU HAVE TO GO THERE AND STAND ON THE RIM YOURSELF TO SEE IT.
