WOW! Today was one of the most impressive days we had so far in our trip along the West Coast. After breakfast our awesome bus drivers Scotty and Johnny took us to the amazing Grand Canyon. First we hiked a mile and a half down the Bright Angel Trail by around 80 degrees Fahrenheit. We all took gorgeous pictures of the overwhelming beauty of the nature. The Grand Canyon is one of the most powerful landscapes-overwhelmed in world nature. It is the first national park in the United States established in 1908 and the Americans are really proud of it’s history. Although we did not go all the way down to the Colorado river and just saw a tiny part of the canyon, it still amazed us very much. After visiting Las Vegas, which is all man made, it was nice to see something naturally made that had equal beauty in a different way. On the way down we saw mules and we smelt their left overs. On the way back up the canyon we were so exhausted and drank so much water. Once to the top we ate lunch and took lots of pictures. Some of us went on the shuttles to see the different vista points. Tomorrow we go to Phoenix; It’s our last bus ride :( we are very sad. But we will "party" tonight at the hotel!
