We made it to the Grand Canyon. It was beautiful as the pictures show. We thought we would have a short drive but it took us 8 hours again. We are camping at Lake Mead in Boulder City for 2 days. We need the break. Tomorrow we go into California. We were briefly in California yesterday. They stop you on the highway to find out if you have any fruits, vegetables or animals. We are going into las Vegas today to an aquarium. It will be 95 degrees or higher-a little different from yesterday (I think it was around 40). Those told us when we got here to be careful of the scopions, traratulas and rattle snakes. How fun. Everything is very dry here-the river beds are all dried up-very different from all the flooding we saw 3 days ago. We have cable at our site but no WiFi. Sunday night we camped at a very old Route 66 motel/campground with train cars to sleep in. Maybe next time.
