Day 5 - Grand Canyon, hiking & helicopter

 
 
4 in the morning, and we are hiking in the Grand Canyon!
 
 
 
 
 
 
The first point.
 
 
 
Julia.
 
 
 
We were a small group who chose this hike. It is Kate, Donna, Kerry, me and Julia.
Julia and I walked a longer hike than the other girls.
 
 
 
 
 
Sunrise!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Glad we made it so far!
 
 
 
On our way back up.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Squirrel.
 
 
What an amazing view!!
 
 
We made it back to the top!! Victory! It was really hard - took about 5 hours. So I was very glad when we were back :)
We went back to camp and took a shower and had some lunch. In the afternoon a helicoptertour was waiting!
 
 
 
Excited to sit in the front of the helicopter!
 
 
So was I!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
This is so big you wouldn't even see a person here.. It is unbelievable!
 
 
This is Colorado River.
 
 
 
 
We drove right through a monsun, which was very cool. It ended after a few minutes and it is very common in that environment.
 
 
 
 
 
 
The "pilot" took some pictures afterwards..
 
 
 
 
I have to admit that both Julia and I were a little bit disappointed of the tour, it was very expensive and it took a long time and it looked pretty much the same everywhere.. But it was fun to do it, but not worth it.
 
 
This is what the sky looked like when we got back home to the camp that night.. Completely pink!!
