ANTELOPE CANYON!!
























































































































You may be wondering why I capitalized the title and devoted so much into this post. Let me tell you though this was by far the most expensive excursion of our trip it was by far the favorite for all of is. There are no words to explain it! So I hope the pictures give you a small glimpse of its awesomeness.

The tour company have trucks with benches lined in the bed for the group to ride out to the Canyon in, but for the fortunate ones with small children they got to ride in the cab so the kid(s) could be properly seat belted in. There for avoiding the unpleasantness of riding in sweltering heat through sand in an open seat. Once we got there to my pleasant surprise there was no hiking required, a definite perk! We just pulled up to the start of the canyon and walked through and back to the truck. And once in the Canyon it was mostly shaded making for a pleasant break from the heat. Although the sand being kicked up left us with a gritty feeling in the end.

Leta was the star of our group as I got tired of convincing her to be good in the backpack and finally left her out to play in the sand to her hearts content. In the end we ended up with some amazing photos and a desire to come again soon when it wasn't so busy and crowded the only downside to the visit.

  1. WOW! You are right this is AWESOME. I love all these shots, especially the one with Leta alone. You did good on the shots, I would never guess it was busy.
