Dat 53 - Grand Canyons

June 23rd
(Ursula) The extreme heat in Las Vegas was relentless, and we were both done with it. Maybe we’ll return to the city at another time in our lives, but for now, we were eager to escape. So, we set our sights on Grand Canyon National Park next.

The hitchhiker couple from yesterday ended up sticking with us, and we all made the 5-hour drive together. Upon arrival at the South Rim, we were relieved to find a free camping spot at a 7,000-foot elevation—the cooler temperatures were a huge relief after the scorching heat of Vegas.

As the sun began to set, the view from the edge of the canyon was simply breathtaking. Wally and Heinz captured some incredible photos. Later that evening, we met a Swiss couple from Zurich, Robert & Annelise, who were camping at the same site. We spent hours swapping stories about our travels and plans, sharing a wonderful evening of conversation that stretched late into the night. What a perfect way to unwind after the heat!Okumaya devam et
