We took a bus tour from Las Vegas to Grand Canyon West departing at 6:45 am and arriving back in Vegas at 7:30 pm. It was sooo nice to let someone else do the driving for the day! Especially the last 14 miles to the Grand Canyon West which is still a rough dirt road (it will be paved in about 7 months). Wow, what a view from the SkyBridge! Much more enjoyable than my past trips to the Grand Canyon NP. There were no guard rails and it was shear cliffs straight down! Our niece and nephew are fearless...they would stand right at the cliff's edge...oops should I being telling this to their parents?? We also had a very enjoyable conversation on the bus with a young Australian girl named Hope. She was touring America alone because her job in California at a youth camp was ended after only two weeks...the economy you know. She decided to tour American until the "feds caught her" or she ran out of money...whichever one came first! We also got caught in a desert monsoon on the dirt road coming back from the Grand Canyon; the desert lightening was very impressive.
