The Beauty of the Grand Canyon

Many people have heard of the grand canyon. And today I got the oppertunity to go there. 🙂 The place is ginormous! I went to south side and the view was spectacular!

Some things you should remember to pack when visiting the grand canyon are:
Bring LOTS of water. It’s dangerous to not drink enough water.
Bring snacks. When you go hiking and exploring you will get hungry.
Make sure you have a camera. The view is going to be spectacular make sure you get it in a photo. 😀

There are many places to see along the grand canyon. The places I saw were gorgeous. So, I’ll give you some pointers on some special places to see.

Bright angel trail.
Bright angel trail is a hike down to the center of the canyon.
One thing to remember when hiking this trail that I forgot was, don’t wear yourself to hard on the hike down because you still have to go back up. Going up will most likely take twice as long as hiking down. Overall, this trail was simply beautiful!

Another thing I did was take the red route bus around the grand canyons south side. The bus takes you to some cool lookouts. What I appreciated from this tour was if one interests you can get out look around. Take some pictures then wait for the next bus to pick you up and continue the tour. The busses come by every 15 minutes.

One of my friends a long time ago taught me the meaning of surreal. And I think surreal is the only way to discribe the beauty of this canyon. Next time you are in Arizona make sure you check it out you will be glad you did! 🙂
