We got up early on Thursday and headed North from Flagstaff to the Grand Canyon, which took us about an hour and a half. Its a bit weird trying to describe actually going there and seeing it all to be honest - safe to say words, and even pictures, don't do the place justice!! We stayed there for about 2 hours in total, and then hit the road once again, awestruck at what we'd just seen!!
We then headed to what was without doubt the best place either of us have ever been - EVER!! Yeah thats right, we cruised along part of route 66 and were lucky enough to drive right through the town of Valentine, Arizona. Obviously it was complete coincidence that our route took us through this wonderful town, and had nothing to do with me altering our course, not one bit!!
Ha...and then we carried on our proper-course to Las Vegas, stopping off briefly for a few photos at the Hoover Dam, on the Arizona-Nevada state border - Safe to say it was rather impressive, although I guess it paled in significance to the wonders we'd already seen during the day, the Grand Canyon and of course Valentine....!!!!!!
