blog for tuesday

Continuing my trip to Grand Canyon, we decided to go to Grand Canyon Saturday morning. So we get up Saturday morning, have a late breakfast. Then finally head out to Grand Canyon around 12 o'clock. It took us about 2 1/2 to 3 hours to get to Grand Canyon. We finally arrived at Grand Canyon, we filled up some gas on the way in to the park. To enter the park in our car we had to pay $25. So I drove into the park and continued driving until I found a place to park. This was one of the observation points from where one could see the canyon. I parked the car and walked over to the point from where I saw the canyon.

It was breathtaking, just beautiful. The sight of the canyon cannot be described in words. It was one of the most amazing things I have ever seen in my life. The canyon was humongous, enormous. When you are looking at the huge canyon, all you can think off in your mind is silence. The huge canyons were apparently created by the river, which had been cutting through the rocks over centuries.

After this I drove over to the next observation point. Over here I got to see the canyon from another angle. A structure close to the center of the canyon looked like a pyramid. We took some pictures over here and headed to an Indian (Native American) gift shop. They had some unique collectibles in that shock which included dream catchers and other Indian crafts. I regretted not leaving Laughlin earlier as I would have been able to spend more time in this beautiful place. There were a lot of things to do at Grand Canyon if one got there early enough. There is a skywalk which is a glass bridge which goes out from one part of the canyon and comes back in another part, it's like a small U-shaped bridge. Since the entire range is made of glass one feels like one is walking in the sky. One could also rent a mule to go around parts of the canyon. I plan to go back to Grand Canyon sometime in the future and spend more time over there.
