Well yesterday as you know we went horse riding for around 3 hours. At the time and afterwards I was under the impression that me and my horse, Pioux, had bonded and had an understanding and you know - got on well as we galloped over the fields in the pitch black of night. However, little did I know that this horse was just making me think that, while he secretly inflicted the most pain in the most parts of my body I have ever experienced all in one go. He was a crafty horse though - he made it happen the day after I rode him. To my body, I went riding through vertical canyons for little under 3 months, let alone 3 days.
Today we went back to the overpasses in the Canyon de Chelley, and saw the Spider Rock and the White House Formation (a house carved in the rock) and then we carried on to the Grand Canyon. Over 300 miles long and 15 miles wide at places. Even around a mile deep in one place. Unfortunately the weather wasn't on our side and the heaven's had opened well before we reached the canyon itself. By the time we got to the Canyon, we were facing mist so bad we couldn't see 100ft in front of us, let alone a mile deep.
We are planning to go back again tomorrow, and although there is snow forecast, we are hoping that we will see much grander views and be able to post more pictures up for you.
Wish us luck, and keep us in mind as we recover from our escapades with the horses.
Stay classy Grand Canyon!
