Finally, at the Grand Canyon

After our afternoon in Page, we arrived in the late afternoon.  Beautiful sites all along the way!














We were told the "must see's" at the Grand Canyon were sunrise and sunset.  So, we were determined to do both, with a mule ride midday, then some hiking. We liked sunrise even better since there were clouds, a bit of rain, and majestic skies!



















I was really nervous about the mule ride on the edge of the Canyon.  In hind-site, I should have been more worried about the soreness after!  It was awful!!  I felt like I had been hit by a truck.  Monte felt the same. It could be that I was really nervous and tensing up. You do have to control your mule, and I have NO experience at that!  They would misbehave right on the edge! Totally scary!! But, also a nice way to see the canyon if you can relax.







Since we were so sore, we had to scrap the hike idea.  I was so glad we did this at the end of the trip instead of the beginning!

Such an amazing trip! Can't wait to go back to different areas around Utah.  I didn't know how much I'd loved the dessert!
