Day 10: Grand Canyon

June 27.  Today we were up and on the road by 7:50. It was hard to say goodbye to Greg since he would be catching a flight around 10:00 from Phoenix.  Jackie and Cassidy took him to the airport.  We did see a wild boar in our campground this morning. That was quite a sight. 

Our drive to our next campground, KOA Williams was only 2 1/2 hours so we got there and checked in by 10:30. We saved a little money because they only had sites with electric and water available. After lunch we headed the 45 minutes to the Grand Canyon.  

I must say that it is definitely one of the most beautiful sights ever.  We watched a short video on how the canyon was created then took a bus ride to 3 different view points.  

On the way out of the park we saw a huge elk just lying in the trees.  

 We returned to camp around dinner time and the boys headed to the pool with my parents while I made dinner.

 

 The boys even made friends with two boys in the camper next door from South Africa.  Off to bed early because tomorrow we have a long drive to Tulare, California.
