Grand Canyon (275kms)

Wow wee the rumors are true the Grand Canyon really is one of the natural wonders of the world. We arrived early and went for a bike around the rim a walk down one of the pathways and generally wandered around and ogled at all the amazing views. I am fascinated by all the amazing shadows cast.

Observations:
• So many visitors from France, Germany and Japan
• The bark of the ponderosa tree smells like butterscotch
• They eat a cactus called a prickly pear - OUCH!
• Burn offs and skunks combined make for a very smelly forrest
• Now I know the cute squirrels have rabies they don't seem so cute anymore
• One lady thinks it is appropriate to pluck her chin on the ledge ewww
• Elks are huge
• Karma's Chocolate volcano dessert in Flagstaff is incredible
• Sunsets over the canyon are pink, pink, pink
• It's hard not to take a gazillion photos
• Some people are crazy and go out on ledges they so shouldn't
