Grand Canyon

Hi!

I told you that my journey was not over yet. 😃

I think from the title and my pictures you can see what else we did. 😂

We went to the Grand Canyon in Arizona! It was just awesome. When you stand in front of the red mountains, everything looks so unrealistic. 😅 Between the mountains you could see the Colorado River. 😍

Anyway, it was worth it for me. Even if it extended the trip by a few hours. We arrived at about 12 noon and then had four hours to walk around the national park.

In some places there were just elks standing around. They looked so trusting. When I tried to pet an elk, I was able to touch its nose. But at the second try the elk didn't want to be petted anymore and made that clear by his behavior. There I jumped then times rather to the side. So quite tame they are then but not. 😅 Are just still wild animals.

On our way through the mountains, we also saw a longhorn sheep running around in the mountains at a viewing platform. It then laid down on a rock to sun itself. 🥰 I couldn't have seen it with the naked eye because it was too far away. Luckily there was a man with binoculars who let us look through. So we could see the animal from very close (see pictures).

At about four o'clock in the afternoon we left again towards home. The next night we spent in Springfield, Missouri.

Of course we also drove on Route 66, which goes through Springfield. On a rest area there were Route 66 signs in a building. There we had to take pictures first. In between, there was also a traffic jam on Route 66, which of course cost us time.

The rest of the route we drove completely through. Sunday to Monday night we arrived at the ranch in Pennsylvania. After that I fell into bed at 1 o'clock in the morning. 🥱

Last Monday we still had free and could still recover. Today we started again. 😁

Next week is grading day for my projects again. I still have a lot to do for that! I lost a little bit of time due to the trip. 😬

I will now also post regularly again on the weekend. Yes, that was now a bit messed up. 😅

Until the weekend! 👋🏻
