We had a whirlwind four days with our friends in Page, AZ. A day trip on lake Powell, exploring canyons, visiting the beautiful Rainbow Bridge site (Pic on our previous blog)
We took a float trip down the Colorado River, below Glen Canyon dam which was very relaxing.
We went to Toro Weap on the North rim of the Grand Canyon and you can see me sit on the edge, it looks less scary on the photograph....
We went four-wheeling in the Paria River area and found a fixer-upper...
We thought we were on the moon, but there was a road below, to which we could connect.
Beautiful Lake Powel, Yes we did go swimming in water over 200 feet deep.
The temperature (nearer the surface, of course) was nearly 80 degrees (F)

Nice places on the river, the cayon walls are very high (1200 ft)
The Glen Canyon dam is a sight to behold as well,
the bridge carries two lane traffic, and shakes just a bit. The dam is 710 feet high and is wider that Hoover dam, down stream.
