We left Las Vegas early. We picked up our rental car and drove to the Hoover Dam, on the border of Nevada and Arizona.We didn't take a tour, but we did walk along the top of it - it's huge!
From there we drove through the Mohave Desert, and along part of Route 66.
There is so much beautiful scenery. We passed by Peach Springs, which was apparently the town that inspired Radiator Springs from the movie Cars.
We had a quick stop at our hotel in Williams before starting the hour drive to the Grand Canyon.
Pictures do not do that place justice. It is so amazing. I honestly cannot describe how wonderful it is. I am in love.
Because we got there late in the afternoon, we weren't able to do much hiking, but we did get to see the phenomenal sunset (although the wind was going crazy, and the temperature dropped as soon as the sun did).
I'm so glad I finally got to see it. The Grand Canyon is definitely on my list of the favourite places I've been.
