Here we are for the fourth time, on the same story.
On day 5, my mom took me to the grand canyon. The drive to the grand canyon from pheonix was around 2 hours long, I should’ve been able to sleep, but as I have discovered, it is extremely difficult for me to fall asleep on something that is not a bed. So the 2 hours of the drive were spent of me attempting to fall asleep and failing.
Once I was able to see the grand canyon, its size was completely overwhelming; the same could be said about its height. As I walked along the edge, it was quite confusing to look to the right and see nothing moving, the grand canyon looked as if it was painted across the sky. An incredible scene of red, orange, and yellow paints splashed across a colossal sized canvas. It was the quintessence of “nature”, an incredible canyon formed over millions of years through erosion. Being there was an honor in of itself, it was easy to see why it was considered one of the “wonders of the world”. The only thing taking away a partial amount from how incredible this scene was, was the intense heat. The sun felt like a laser beam shining all of its power directly on me, but it was probably only because I’m Canadian and it never gets hot in Canada.
Overall, seeing the grand canyon was one of the most memorable moments of my life. if I had to option to see it again, i would say yes, and for anyone who wants to go to see it, but is hesitant. I say take the opportunity.
