Grand Canyon is so beautiful it made my wife stop talking

We visited the Grand Canyon with another family during the 4th of July weekend. We were worried about the crowds but found entrance into the park went very smooth. Definitely remember to bring cash! The cash only lane to buy a park pass is much faster and shorter than the credit card line.

The Canyon was awe inspiring. Our kids (ages 14 - 7) were completely fascinated. Even in July, the weather wasn’t too hot, about 85 degrees F. The park staff, from the bus drivers to the park rangers to the restaurant staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Be sure to vist both the rim west of Grand Canyon Village as well as the more popular east side. The Rim Trail is very easy to navigate and the Shuttle Buses run every 15 minutes during the summertime. We will be back to further explore this amazing and beautiful place.
