The Incredibly GRAND Canyon

So, after the hike in Sedona, we continued north until we hit the tiny little town of Tusayan which is just 3 short miles from the South Rim of the Grand Canyon! Amanda and I were adventurous, perhaps a little too much at times, and hiked below the rim of the canyon on the South Kaibob trail for a couple miles... and wow, it was STEEP! A testament to the steepness of the hike was the fact that it took us longer to get down than back up! And, on the way back up, we actually stopped frequently to take photos (and catch our breath)! Anyway, we had a fabulous time, the canyon is simply breathtaking - words and photos don't do this place justice. Sorry for the short entry, figured as always, to let the pictures tell the story...
