Visting the Grand Canyon

Over the weekend, we went camping in Williams, AZ, which is about 1 hour from the Grand Canyon. We went to the Grand Canyon on Saturday, the weather when we left our campground was starting to clear up from the morning rain. As we arrived at the Grand Canyon beautiful sky and white fluffy clouds, weather was good. The park was very crowded, which I suspect is the normal.

I had never been to the Grand Canyon before, what an amzing sight. Here are some of the pictures I took.

As we were leaving, it started to get very cold, and this huge thunderstorm cloud, moved in on top of us. It poured rain and hail for about 20 minutes as we wre driving. It was really loud in the jeep and as it was letting up and stopping Chase says "Do it again Daddy!" He thought it was pretty cool!

Your photos turned out fabulous.
We took our girls to see the Grand Canyon some 16 years ago. We went in the winter for Christmas vacation (no crowds and no sweltering sun). We stayed at El Tovar on the south rim and went skiing in Flagstaff. It was wonderful. I so would love to go back some day.
Thanks for stopping by.
Take care and have a beautiful day.
