The Grand Canyon!

Hello Everyone,

When we left the Petrified Forest we headed to Williams, Arizona to stay the night.  We stayed at the Grand Canyon Railway RV Park which is adjacent to the Grand Canyon Railway Hotel. We stayed the night at the RV Park, and was up bright and early to see the western show at 9:00 AM.  Directly after the show we headed to the train and rode up to the Grand Canyon, a 2 hour and 15 minute ride.  After we got off the train we got on a large bus and went to have a nice buffet lunch.  After lunch we boarded the bus and proceeded to see the Grand Canyon.  We got to see three stops along the south rim of the canyon, the scenery was amazing. It's so cool to see the place that you've heard about your whole life! The canyon is huge, colorful and just plain amazing! It's hard to describe it! It takes your breath away!! Here are the pictures, but they don't do it justice!! By the way, we haven't gotten many comments lately, we are missing them!! Also, vote on your favorite thing we did on the first quarter of the trip, only 9 days left!!
