I remembered so vividly how torturous and physically demanding it was to drive ALL THE WAY from Los Angeles --> Las Vegas --> Grand Canyon! It was a total of 8 hours drive ok!!
So this time round we're a lil clever, we booked with a tour to go to Las Vegas so that we can avoid the driving + this tour brings us to Grand Canyon too!
I think it was a clever choice though it sucked very much because the tour guide was a Chinese, and he had to speak in 2 different language - mandarin and english. Not to mention his english was.....................
Throughout the journey, he was speaking like this:
"Later u will be ah.. meeting me ah.. at the DU-ER lobby" (what he meant was TOUR lobby, i was scratching my head so hard like.. WHAT IS DU-ER LOBBY?!?!)
"We ah.. bringling (bringing) u to the.. ah... buffet.. $10 dollah veli cheap."
Ok enough said, it was horrible listening to him for the entire journey. *turns off*
It's pictures time!! :D
(Anyway i really think that it is more worthwhile visiting Grand Canyon in Summer than in Winter!) Click "here" for my Summer Grand Canyon post! :)

This is quite funny........ (???? WHAT CRIME SCENE TOOK PLACE HERE?)
Then we had our lunch... IN THE COLD!!!! Without any firestand or anything y'know.. i was trembling through out!! Not to mention that were those BIG black birds hanging around the eating area, i was so scared that they would snatch away the food! :O
And I was feeling thirsty.. so i went to take some hot water cuz i wanted to dissolve my tea powder. AMAZINGLY.... it was only a short mere walk from where they served the food to my seat, prolly a 15secs walk? When i reached my table and poured the tea powder in it, IT JUST WOULDN'T DISSOLVE.................................... cuz while I was walking, THE HOT WATER ACTUALLY BECAME COLD!!
YES... the weather was THAT cold!!!!!!
LOL hilarious much!
B playing with snow~
Then we were feeling quite bored because we did not try out the skywalk/helicopter ride/boat ride as it all involved $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$....
So to kill time, we decided to use the lil stones to form the word "GRAND CANYON" and it turned out fabulous!!!
A picture with our own creation~
