Day 17 Grand Canyon and Page Arizona

Woke up early this morn and I was planning on getting in two stops today, hit the Grand Canyon, then head northeast to Page where Antelope Canyon is…..so off we go, head west on I40 to route 64 and head north, it’s pretty simple, but not for my GPS. That dam thing must have some old maps or needs a firmware upgrade or something cause this thing was taking me all over Flagstaff…fed up, I finally just started following the road signs and voila!!! I was in the visitor center parking lot….sometimes it just might be better to go “old school” once in a while. So I hit the visitor center, used the “can”, went out to the lookout, took a few pics, took a few pics for some other tourists there and then back on the bike…I was originally going to go for a little hike part way down the Rim trail, but there really wasn’t anywhere to change up and the thought of getting geared up after hiking didn’t sound too appealing (yeah, I know, some may call that a wimpy excuse but i think I’m gettin a little too old for that kinda stuff)….

The "Grand Canyon" from Mather Lookout

The "Grand Canyon" from Kenny's Lookout.....

It really is impressive and pictures cannot really capture the magnitude of this “wonder of the world”…at least not my pictures (maybe I shud take a photo class when i get back??). Anyhow, back on the bike and off to Page where I’m gonna spend the nite and go see Antelope Canyon (on recommendation from a friend of mine)….remember earlier on I mentioned that I absolutely hated riding in gusty winds, well the ride to Page musta been the windiest place I have ever been to…I not sure how fast the winds were blowing, but let me put it this way, when stopped to gas up, my bike almost blew over off the stand…apparently, this is normal for that area….I felt really bad for those guys pulling those huge 5th wheels. But none the less, I made it to Page in such good time that I was too early for check in, so in talking with the front desk girl, I found out I could get in on a tour of Antelope Canyon that afternoon (the only way to see the upper Antelope Canyon is with a guide ), I was actually planning to go the next morning, but hey, I had time to kill… the shuttle bus ( or shud I say pickup with seats in the bed) showed up and off we go. If you have never heard of Antelope ( I didn’t) you probably have seen photos of it, this place is know worldwide for its “slot”canyons and has been professionally photographed numerous times…..take a look at mine

hundreds of years of water did this...I could probably do it in a week with a pressure washer!

These are only a few of the pics I took…I must have hundreds!!! If you wanna see more you are gonna have to bring a case of beer over (maybe 2) and I can show you all of them….years ago, there was a flash flood and several people actually died in the canyon which is one of the reasons why to see the upper canyon, you must go with a guide…I was glad that I went that afternoon cause guess what??? It was raining the next day and the canyon was closed…hah!! chalk one up to fate!!! If you are ever travelling northern Arizona, this place is a must see!!! I would even pass the Grand Canyon to see this if you could only do one…..so there you go, two thumbs up for Antelope!!!!
