Today was our last day at the Grand Canyon. Tomorrow we drive back to Phoenix to fly back to Boston on Friday. On our way back to Phoenix we’re going to stop in Flagstaff and explore this historic city.

The Grand Canyon is such an amazing place and well worth a visit!

I thought this was such a funny picture. This was taken on our hike yesterday when it was so windy. The wind puffed up Brendan’s jacket and I thought he was going to fly away!

Today we drove out to Desert View which is in the eastern section of the park. This section of the park gets a lot less visitors, but there are some great views of the Colorado River from here. We walked out to Yaki Point which is only accessible by shuttle bus and is the starting point for the Kaibab Trail which is one of the trails down into the canyon. We were so bummed that we couldn’t hike down into the canyon because of the conditions that Brendan made us walk down to the first switchback just so we could say we hiked down:) Just as we were leaving the Grandview Point Brendan spotted this coyote on the edge of the road. I got a few pictures of the coyote crossing the road before he disappeared into the woods.
