Las Vegas: Part Dos


Here are some more shots from my trip to Las Vegas. On the second day, my friends and I decided to go on the Grand Canyon Tour - the West area.

We had to go to the Grand Canyon and given that it is one of the seven wonders of the world, it was a must for me. It was awesome and the view is amazing....everyone should go and check it out and who knows you might the so called “bug,” which is the urge to go back several times and check out the south, east and north area.

The tour started really early – you get picked up from your hotel before 7am and leave the tour center at 7.30am. About an hour and half later you make a pit stop at Hoover Dam, and then a couple hours later you reach the Grand Canyon. First area of the tour is Eagle Point and this where they have the Skywalk. Of course I went on it! It was cool…walking on glass that's so high up at about 4,700 feet was pretty cool! The view is amazing!

The next stop was Guano Point . Here is where lunch was provided – food was really good and filling. At Guano Point you can also do more viewing of the Grand Canyon and do some climbing to get an even better view. Below is a video I took from the top of the mountain.
