We woke up to an absolutely beautiful day. This was taken at the Williams/Grand Canyon KOA.
We had to drive a couple hours from the KOA to get to the South Rim entrance. The Grand Canyon was not on a direct route to Portland. We definitely went out of the way. But it was so worth it. Tom had never been. Last time I went I was 13. So this was a pretty exciting thing for us to experience together. Yes, it is basically a REALLY big hole. But it's so big it takes your breath away. The colors are amazing. And just realizing that such a big thing happened naturally is mind boggling. I tried to narrow it down to only a few pictures. Yes, there were way more than this to start with.
The South Rim is very touristy. A long trail runs along the rim, with benches and railings and places to take pictures.
I love them.
Haha.
It was so bright!
This one was actually taken after we started driving away from the South Rim.

A quiet spot we found off the beaten path after leaving the tourist area.
This was actually our first view at the South Rim. Sorry they aren't in order.

South Rim. I love this one.
Some elk(?) we saw when we started driving.
Just a goofy one. It was actually candid. He pointed right when I tried to take the picture.
That's all I feel like posting for now. I'll finish day four later with all the other awesome pictures of Arizona.
