28 November 2011 - Finally found our way to the REAL Grand Canyon and I was absolutely gob smacked...I knew it was big, but it was huger than big. Perfect day with brilliant blue skies and cool sunny weather. The day was really another long period of driving - first to get to the Canyon and then to continue on our journey. We are actually on the last leg of the Camper Van part of the trip and I am soooooo sick of driving...I am looking forward to getting to Los Angeles and handing it back in on December 3.

| Interesting concept! |
Arizona's landscape is so varied - flat and cactus one minute - the Grand Canyon the next and then winding roads up through a mountain range and down the other side. At the bottom is Peeples Valley ...beautiful grazing land filled with horses.....the whole area there looked manicured.
