Grand Canyon Day 1 - River Adventure
Now we headed off to the River Rafting part of our day. No heavy rapids, just rustig through the bottom of the canyon. Cool hats hej!
It's hard to explain how peacfull and stunning it was. The colours were incredible. No photo can bring out the Red and Black (iron oxide) that the rocks had in them.
We were heading towards our lunch appointment on a sand bank where we also got to view some old paintings carved into the mountain.
Here we are docking for food.
It's amazing how hungry one gets when you're having fun.
After lunch we went for a little walk to check out the Big Horn Sheep paintings on the canyon walls.
When our river adventure came to an end we were driven back in buses to the airport we started off with.
It was sad to see our day end, but at least it ended with a FANTASTIC rainbow. We saw all 180degr of it, but couldn't get it into a photo. It was spectacular.
We even got to see some Wildlife!
Just spectacular....
