More canyon...

another pic of the canyon.... i took so many of them.... just like all the other tourists around us. for days we were often the only people on the road for miles, and suddenly we were surrounded by tourbuses full of people. it was such a happening! i think thats interesting... what we saw before was amazing too, but somehow doesnt draw such a crowd as the grand canyon.

here you see how high up you are, and the depths you are staring into. sometimes it made me a bit dizzy, and with the slippery snow i was overly careful, constantly imagining that i would slip and tumble into the depths of the canyon.... here there is a rail that protects you from the depths, but walking just a little further leads you to edges without.... scary!! (it was also interesting that you can walk along the rim for several miles, but most people didnt go far at all. it seemed they just took all the required pics and went off to the next stop... :)  ) as there was quite a layer of snow, you could see how far some people had ventured to have the best view or photo opportunity (it was one big photoshoot where everyone was taking pictures of each other, asking others to take one, offering to take one in return, etc etc). i ofcourse stayed away from the edge, just thinking about going closer made my legs feel shaky....

now we are off to more wonders of nature, here around page. im very curious!!
