We went to Albertsons to pick up a breakfast on the run this morning, as still have a ways to get to the Grand Canyon.
We did also stop at Four Corners, where Colorado, Utah, New Mexico & Arizona meet. This is the only place in the US where 4 states come together. Of course, I had the obligatory tourist picture taken.
Me & Amy, Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona
Finally we arrived at the Grand Canyon National Park, via the east entrance. We stopped at the Visitor Center and took our first view of this natural wonder from Devil’s Canyon. For years I’d seen pictures and marveled at this place, but they don’t do the slightest justice. The Grand Canyon is just breathtaking! We set up camp at the Mather Campground before heading over to Aspen loop to walk the edge of the Southern Rim and watch the sunset over the canyon. Beautiful is word often used but it does not go near how this sunset looked. On the way back to the campsite we stopped at an amphitheater to watch a slide show of a ranger who did a 3 week hike along the Colorado River at the Canyon’s bottom.
