The "Grand" Day Out

Linda went out and bought doughnuts for our early breakfast before we left for the Grand Canyon.  We left soon after 8am hoping to be there at about lunch time!!!


This is near Sedona.  The red rock landscape was fascinating.

We stopped so many times and saw so many interesting sights.  Montazuma Castle and the Native American Indian Stalls were just two of our stops.

We made it to Williams by lunch time and had a short trip on Route 66 and a stop at the souvenir shop.


Eventually we made it to the IMax theatre to see the Grand Canyon Movie Experience.  Then with a bit of direction from a tour guide we headed of to see the spectacle that is "The Grand Canyon"
(hoping we might make it by sunset!!!)


We only saw a small portion of this massive wonder of the world and we were really grateful that we could see it at sunset and watch the colours change.

Needless to say the journey home was considerably quicker without all the scenic stops but those were sights we may never see again and we have our memories now forever.
