I've been feeling really restless lately. I have this immense desire to travel and get out of the city. I wasn't sure where to go or what to do though. I've been really busy lately (shocker) and I wanted to be alone to clear my thoughts and regain equilibrium. So, I took Friday off and went on an adventure to the Grand Canyon.
Most people around the country are cold and covered in snow. Not me! The weather was great. It was almost like a spring day - the sun was shinning, the air was crisp, and the scenery was beautiful. I got into my new car Friday morning and just drove. I put on my sunglasses, rolled down my windows and let the breeze play with my hair. For once, time was on my side and I wasn't in a hurry to get anywhere. I made a ton of pit stops along the way and loved every moment of it.
My first pit stop was Montezuma Castle in Camp Verde.
I took the scenic route to the Grand Canyon. This is what I saw when I looked in my rear view mirror:
I finally made it to the Grand Canyon!
Grand isn't it? I've seen it more than once and it amazes me every time.
And, that's my trip. Even though it was only for a day, it was really nice to get away and escape the city for a while.
Next trip: Europe!! In my dreams anyways...
