Grand Canyon







As a surprise for David on our trip we decided to make a detour. We thought it would be fun to go see the Grand Canyon. It's only about a 50 minute drive off of I-40. Well... after traveling the extra 50 miles and paying the $25.00 to get in. We were unable to even see the canyon. On our way up it started to snow but by the time we got to the rim we were in a snow storm with serious wind. The snow was coming down so hard it stung when it hit your face. Adam was crying. I was a bit freaked out because I couldn't keep my eyes open long enough to keep an eye on David. We literally spent maybe 2 minutes at the Grand Canyon. It was miserable. We are going to stop the next time we go to Arizona which will probably be in the Summer.
We still had fun despite the icky weather.

Well, at least you tried! Sorry it didn't work out! I guess you can just plan that as another fun family trip!

Sorry you weren't able to see the canyon!

Glad you got a chance to go up there though!
