As we were planning to leave Grand Canyon National Park today, Shawna and I had intentionally planned to 'play up' today and the rest of the trip so that the kids would not get discouraged.We were all very excited about getting to go to two states we have nver been to before. We started out fairly early and stopped at McDonald's in a near-by village for lunch. We got some last looks at the canyon from the car and hit the road. We traveled to California and stopped at Taco Bell in California for lunch. I commented it taste the same in California as it does in Tennessee. We then moved on to Nevada and before we knew it, we were back in Arizona. We did not even get out of the car in Nevada but we can all say we have been there. Our original plan was to stay in Flagstaff, Arizona for the night but we got there and ate dinner (at Five Guys) and decided to move a little closer to Four Corners. We had Grampy do some ground work to find a hotel near Four Corner for us and we stayed a little over an hour away from the landmark. We passed the time in the car by having a devotional, reviewing Bible facts, and writting in our journals. We had an awesome day. Here are some pcitures of the day.
Can you tell who was in charge of taking pictures?
JT and I are still very proud of our accopmlishment of hiking to the river and back in one day.
We ran into the Roakkill Cafe on our trip. JT thought it was cool but stated the drink he ordered tasted somewhat like gravel!
This was entering into California. Again, we slowed down but did not have to stop to talk to anyone.
Taco Bell tastes the same in California as it does in Tennessee!
On into Nevada but was not in the state for long.
Kaylee wanted to take pictures of the scenery.
It was a good day. And we were safe.
