For the final get together of the re-union we took a bus ride
to the West Rim of the Grand Canyon. Our trip had a short stop at
the Hoover Dam. We were able to walk out on the bridge and get
some different views of the Dam than you can get from on it. I added
those pictures to end of the slide show above. As we pulled into
the stop there we saw a herd of long horned sheep climbing up the side
of the hill.
Along the route to the canyon we passed through a Joshua Tree
forest. We had a short stop for pictures there. Once we reached the
Indian Reservation I took a lot of photos. See the
Slideshow of West Rim.
The package we bought included a walk on the skywalk.
The skywalk is a u shaped bridge over the edge of the canyon of
a transparent glass 4,000 feet above the canyon floor.
We had to
change our shoes for cloth slippers so as to not scratch the glass.
In addition we couldn't take our cameras out on the overlook, but
they had camera persons taking pictures that you could purchase.
Remy and the girls negotiated for the group and we ended up with
a couple of memory sticks with our photos and some other shots of
skywalk during other times of the year.
