Grand Canyon

Marta and I took a Thanksgiving adventure to the Grand Canyon with her dog Bella.

We entered from the east, and stopped at the Watchtower first.

Inside, a spiral staircase lead to many viewing levels. I was thrilled by Mary Colter’s interiors and details on the exterior.

This is what I could see from the tower.

And this is how I felt. Looking the opposite direction, I see the San Francisco peaks.

Marta and I enjoyed a picnic lunch. Then we headed along the rim trail, from Mather point to the Village.

Bella enjoyed herself too. Being very agile, she loves to walk on the walls and climb on rocks.

In Grand Canyon Village, the historic Hopi House contains a gift shop. These pictures are the only souvenirs I brought back.

The Grand Canyon certainly is grand!
