Las Vegas Day 3 - Hoover Dam & Grand Canyon

 On day 2, we joined a tour to the Grand Canyon.
Before the destination, the tour guide brought us to Hoover Dam.
Some history but I don't really understand..
 Welcome to Nevada!
Don't you think the road sings in US are good for pictures? Hehe


 Last year on Thanksgiving, both of us are quite slim.
T.T
 After spending 30 minutes at Hoover Dam,
we continued our journey to Grand Canyon.
Pretty scenery, desert all around.
 So basically, we were leaving Las Vegas.
But going in the Nevada City.
Las Vegas is just for the 'sinful area'.
And there are many casinos/slot machines everywhere!
Even at the gas station and donut shops. 
So interesting and such a unique city in US. 
 After 4 hours journey, we finally reached the GRAND CANYON!
 This place was one of those places in my wish-to-go list.
 No words can describe it.

 Canteen for the tourists.
Just simple lunch box was provided,
which was included in your ticket fee.

 We did not choose the helicopter tour because it cost a lot.
Instead, we walked the glass floor but no camera allowed.
 Sky Walk
Just 3 minutes and I forgot the entrance fees.
We must wear a 'socks' to cover our shoes when we were walking on the glass.
There were 2/3 photographers up there to help you capture photos.
Of course, you must purchase it.
Unfortunately, Xu was kinda afraid of height,
otherwise I would have spend more time up there,
and the photographer was happy to help you at posing to the camera (=

After all these, we sat for 4 hours bus again back to our hotel.
Exhausted!
