Las Vegas Trip-October 2009



Spent a week in the Las Vegas,NV area-went to some evening shows and out to dinner at wonderful restaurants. The weather couldn't have been more wonderful! Sun, sun and MORE sun!!! During the day we drove to several "touristy" places and had an awesome time everywhere!



Decided to go to the Grand Canyon and on the way we stopped at Hoover Dam-they are building a new bridge which you can see in the background so that cars will no longer travel over the dam but "above" the dam. It is amazing to see how they are constructing the bridge!







Arrived late in the day to the Grand Canyon so our first glimpse was pretty much in the dark. Still was breath taking but the pictures did not turn out so well! Not having been to the Grand Canyon before, we were both awestruck by the majesty and beauty of the canyon. Would love to go back again!



One last day trip-just outside of Las Vegas is the Red Rock Canyon. You take a scenic drive thru the canyon. Many people were hiking and some rock climbing. Was again, a wonderful day!
