Oh My ... How Grand ...

March 8, 2017 

We were up early this morning ...

excited for this journey to the Grand Canyon ...

It took us just over an hour to reach our destination ... 

It was going to be a once in a lifetime adventure ...

One that Oma could strike off her bucket list ...

A map showing the area ...

We decided to take the bus tour ... taking us to all the stops ... 

What a magnificent view ... on our first stop of the Inner Canyon ...

We were able to see the snow on the mountain top ...

in the distance ...

Loved seeing this bluebird at one of the stops ...

It was difficult to watch some of the tourists ... taking chances just to get a picture ...

Two people losts theirs lives the week we were there  ... so sad ...

Oma taking in the view ... a perfect photo opportunity as well ...

at Hopi Point ...

Everywhere you looked ... the view was breathtaking ...

There was always someone to take a family picture of us ... 

and in turn we would take pictures of families as well ...

A beautiful keepsake of our time together ...

When we first arrived at the park ... there was snow on the ground ... apparently it had been cold and windy here ... We were fortunate to see the sunshine ...  blue sky ... and by noon time ... it was already quite warm ... We were waiting for the bus ...  to take us to the next point of interest ...
