July 1 - Grand Canyon

Most people visit the south rim of the Grand Canyon.  However, since we are coming from Las Vegas the North Rim is much closer...plus, the trip was booked rather late so there was no way we would have found accommodations at the South Rim.  Our first stop was a Cape Royal overlook with amazing panorama views.

Saw a cute little lizard sunning himself on a rock.

We had great views of Wotan's Throne, one the "ancient temple" formations.

Other viewpoints yielded equally magnificent views.

Chloe really enjoyed the views and enjoyed taking photographs with Grandpa's fancy camera.
