My family likes to take a Christmas trip every year. This year we decided to stay a little closer since my dad was starting a new job in Indiana on January 3rd so we went to the Grand Canyon. We left on Sunday (Dec 26th) and drove to Flagstaff were we spent the night. On the way down we had quite the karaoke session using water bottles as microphones. The next morning we headed to the Grand Canyon. When we got there everyone (except my dad) was under the impression that it would be warm there (around 50 F) but it wasn't. It was maybe 40 in the sun and we were all freezing. The trails going into the canyon were also like 4 inches of mud so we just walked the trail rim to all the overlooks. The view is beautiful and we had a great time.
We spent the night in Flagstaff again. We had a delicious dinner at this place called the New Jersey Pizza Company. After dinner we went to the Flagstaff observatory and looked at Orion's belt through their big telescope. The next morning we headed back to St. George. We stopped at the Glenn Canyon dam to stretch our legs and take some pictures.
It was a great trip!
