Hi, it's me Brehndan. Today we drove to the Grand Canyon. We walked on a tar path that went along the south rim. We hiked on one of the trails that leads to the bottom of the Canyon. It was very steep. Some people rode down on donkeys. When the lead donkey stops, the donkeys are trained to turn toward the canyon. It is a very tight path. We had a lot of fun. The Colorado river was named by Mexicans. The name Colorado means red river in Spanish. The Colorado river goes down in elevation 13 times more than the Mississippi river. We are on the way home.


Hi, it's me Brittney. Today we drove to the Grand Canyon. When we got there, we got to look at the most wonderful site that we have ever seen. It was beautiful! You could see purple, blue, green, grey, and little spots of black, red and orange. It was so beautiful that I didn't pay attention to where I was walking, because I was looking. We had a picnic lunch and then we went on a hike down the side of the canyon. I started feeling dizzy because of how far the drop was that we had to walk. We walked back up the trail and we got into the car and started to dive home. We are on our way!!!
