... l'eau... Eau de montagne = eau glaciale, la formule se vérifie en un instant ! Les jambes sont sciées par le froid (negatif ?!) alors que la tête est en surchauffe...

Rather than drive to Page right after exiting the canyon, we elected to grab a hotel on the South Rim. We had dinner, showered, and hit the sack.

Lees Ferry camping ground is on the edge of the Colorado River and is where the rafting starts for trips down the Grand Canyon. We went and checked out some rafters starting off and then headed to the camp grounds to set up for the night. The view of the camp grounds was amazing and the trickling of the ...

... pò la strada di corsa visto che non sò quanto ci vuole ad arrivare e come al solito non voglio fare tardi all'Antelope canyon tour. Appena arrivo al bordo si apre una vista abbastanza spettacolare, quell'insieme di colori che si contrastano... faccio qualche foto di rito e via risalgo per andare alla macchina. Via di nuovo verso Page all'agenzia dell'Antelope canyon tours, dove arrivo in anticipo di 30 min... e approffitto per ripulire un pò la chryslerina dalle ...

... a beam of light, it's simply breathtaking. The only way to get photos of this is to go on the photo tour. I like to consider myself an amateur photograher but being surrounded by all these professionals was very intimidating. But it was just amazing and I got some pretty good shots to boot.
