Arizona: Grand Canyon & Meteor Crater
February 27th, 2009 | Personal, Uncategorized
After WPPI in Las Vegas, we headed to Flagstaff, Arizona for two nights before we moved to Santa Fe, New Mexico. It was a very scenic drive. CLICK HERE to see our journey on Google Map.
We were surprised to find snow in Flagstaff. Our windscreen was frozen the next morning. No problem. The survival instinct I acquired from my 5-year stay in Toronto kicked in and rescued the day 
We visited the Grand Canyon for the second time. In our maiden visit two years ago, we flew from Las Vegas to Arizona and were bused around by an unfriendly guide. This time, we took a 2-hour drive from Flagstaff. The view on the ground is very different & more enjoyable as we paced the trip leisurely.
On Sunday, we left Flagstff for Santa Fe. We made an unplanned detour to the Meteor Crater. The 45-minute museum tour, video presentation and walk around the crater was time & money well-spent. Apparently NASA still conducts tests and training at the crater, which is of the size of 20 football fields!
More pictures of Santa Fe coming soon…
Jasmine ordered a mini taco. This is anything but MINI!
Road to the Grand Canyon.
It’s pretty cold up in the Canyon, especially when strong winds sweep into the area.
Meteor Crater…it is a sight to behold.

Kee: This is what it said on the Menu:
Mini Navajo Taco
Just as good as our regular Navajo Taco, only half the size
I think I could only finish slightly more than a quarter of that, not even half:)
