We picked Graham and Conny up safely from Las Vegas airport and had a quick look round the Strip with them before they crashed from jet lag and we stayed up a bit having fun on the slots. Up early for our long drive to the South Rim of the Grand Canyon and get settled in at the hotel and campground. Our first glimpse of the canyon takes the breath away. We took a relativey easy hike along the Rim Trail as far as Hopi Point for more amazing views the next day. In the afternoon we dropped in on...

Where have I been so far this month? After recovering from the excesses of the New Year celebrations in LA I hit the road to head east. First stop was Palm Springs, then on the backways of Arizona, staying at Sedona, the Grand Canyon and Window Rock, capital of the Navajo Nation. Given that I started my trip amongst Indians perhaps it's appropriate that I finish it amongst Red Indians...... From there it was over the state border towards Santa Fe, New Mexico. Lack of time and boredom with dri...

April 30, 1986 After returning from hike down into Grand Canyon. (if going again, check out their web site!) Upon arrival in Phoenix, Don and I rented a comfortable Buick Park Avenue and drove up to Sedona to meet Papa and his friend Kate at a Mexican restaurant. We found him comfortable in manner and dress: blue long sleeved work cotton shirt, blue jeans and western boots. After guacamole tacos we investigated some of the art galleries and exquisite crafts shops displaying silversmithing, gl...

On Saturday we left behind the buzz of Vegas and made our way to Arizona, whose state line with Nevada, runs right through the middle of the Hoover Dam. It took us an hour to travel 4mls to get over the dam but the journey was worth seeing this magnificent engineering structure. What was unexpected is that despite travelling further east and into the desert we should get rain, and bucket loads as thunderstorms passed through the area. At around 1.30pm you felt as if the night was about to clo...

... were knacker ed and headed back to the car instead. If we're honest, walking along the rim is spectacular, but after an hour or so, you feel like you've seen it all already! It can be so busy at times also, and with so many hotels and restaurants, the whole thing feels a bit commercialised. We would both like to visit the canyon again, but stay longer and hike, or mule-ride, down to the bottom - as far away as possible from all the gabbling tourists...<br><br><br>

... of people in the canyon. One memorable story was of Glen and Bessie Hyde who were attempting to be the first woman to raft the canyon in the 1920's. They made it to Phantom Ranch, hiked to the village to tell their story to the papers and promply disapeared off the face of the earth when they continued tot he end of the canyon. Many years later a woman on a rafting trip told a story that SHE was Bessie Hyde and she had stabbed her husband to death and found ...

... mi slzy do očí... Nevěřícně se koukám, co se mi to rozprostírá pod nohama. Bez hlesu sleduju rozmazaný obrysy velikánský členitý průrvy, která se odkrývá pod náma. Na chvilku se otočím na kluky – Radek už fotí a nadšeně s Michalem gestikulujou. Zkouší si sundávat sluchátka a poslouchat, jak hlasitě motor vrtule řve. Otáčím se zpátky a vrstvy stěn propasti mají zase jiný odstíny oranžov ...

... two enjoyed the feeling of being submerged into a pit of wonderfulness. After three miles into the journey, they stopped at Cedar Ridge: a flat surface with many beautiful cedar trees that overlooks a deep chasm of the great canyon. Here they enjoyed a mini-lunch of rice-cakes, granola bars, PowerAde, and beef jerky. The scent of rice cakes and the crinkle of bags attracted the commander of the canyon: the great canyon squirrel. He was an intimidating ...

Paul and the Woman from florida were making jokes about me going to Vegas next, saying I'll be eaten alive by women due to me being 19 years old and british. . .ha!<br><br>It was a massively long day. . .felt like i'd been awake forever, Paul got me back to my hotel by 20:30.
