Grand Canyon

86F (30C) at 7:30am!

After just a few miles of driving, we thought we’d reached the end of the world!

It wasnt the end of the world, but Seligman, an a small town along the historic Route 66.

An old western town, the whole town is kind of like a museum with old store fronts built up for the tourists.

Some original junk as well, here’s an old horse carriage.

I believe this is a replica, I dont think they had those kind of tires back in the days.

Not the original jail, but where the original jail used to be.

We all went potty before continuing.

A few hours later we made it to Grand Canyon, here’s a few selected photos.

It was kind of cool, but I was not as impressed as I thought I would be. I can look at snow covered mountains all day long for days and days and I can never get enough of it, but got a little bored with Grand Canyon after a while. I think next time I visit I have to hike down the canyon, that will probably blow me away. Instead of just looking down on it, feel like being a part of it would probably do.

It was off course still extremely cool, and I got super fascinated when I read about how it was formed; I thought the Colorado River once was this deep and wide and as the climate on earth changes the water in the river gets absorbed leaving a “tiny” stream of water down at the river bed. I had no idea that the river have always been as wide and deep, and the canyon is formed by gravity pulling the water down towards sea level.
