Howdy everybody,

Today I did something that I have always wanted to do, go to the Grand Canyon!!!!!!! Wait let me start at the beginning. We woke up at 5:30am and got up around 6. once we were ready we went to the round table buffet for a brilliant breakfast. Afterwards we took a bus to the Boulder city airport were we where weighed for our helicopter. After half an hour we where taken to our helicopter and took of. On the way to the Grand Canyon we passed over an extinct volcano, Colorado river, Lake Mead and the Hoover Dam. Once we reached the Grand Canyon our pilot told us that the Hualapai Indians owned the area that we were landing in and had given us permission to set down on their land. Once we got out of the chopper we all went to a picnic table and had a picnic. Once we had eaten we wandered around and took photos for 15 minutes. When it was time to leave we flew straight back to Boulder city. Once we returned to Excalibur Dad left to get the campervan or as it is called here, the R.V. Meanwhile Mum, Reid and I Went to The Aquarium at the Mandalay Bay Casino via Luxor, the Egyptian Casino. When we returned to our Casino and found Dad in our room, Dad let us go to a 4-D movie. Reid and I got tickets for both Spongebob and the Polar Express. 4-D is a 3-D movie with special effects like Bubble blower, Snow machine, Water gun and a wire for whacking your legs.

This morning we took a walk inside a canyon, a walk up to a rock with water pouring out the sides. We also took a walk up to a really small but long canyon called The Hidden Canyon. We drove for the rest of the day.
