It's Grand, this canyon*

As numerous guidebooks and travel writers have already said, nothing can prepare you for your first sight of the Grand Canyon. It's too vast, too mind-blowing, to be able to take it all in. 277 miles long, anywhere from 4 to 18 miles wide, and a mile deep. Open your mouth and stare in awe, peeps. That's all you can do.

So no more burble, just some pictures:

I think I see a river... Grandview Point


* Apologies for the bad puns and cheesy jokes you'll find in these posts; that's what spending 9 days with my father does to me.
