We stayed over night at Flagstaff and headed for Grand Canyon the next morning. It was close to 2 hours drive and along the way Mal wanted us to let him get off the car so that he could play with the snow…obviously we had to disappoint him. Mummy was excited to see the Grand Canyon. There was already a crowd at the viewing area when we got to the national park and quite a number of them were Asian. We took some pictures and walked the trail a little. Very soon, it started to snow heavily and the visibilty became too bad for photo taking. Mal enjoyed walking the trail and watching the falling snow…but the wind got stronger and colder and we thought it would be better to head back into the car.
