Day 8 - Hoover dam(n!) and Grand Canyon

30 minutes from the Las Vegas strip we drove over the huge Hoover Dam which produces electricity and stores water for the region. A cool thing to see.
Next stop Grand Canyon caverns.
The caverns were spectacular and we even learned something.
On our way to Grand Canyon we got the first rain on this trip and it was actually very nice and cooling.
We came to Grand Canyon right before sunset and used a good hour on photography and relaxing.
We have seen some great nature in Norway, but the Grand Canyon is truly amazing.
In the sunset the structure in the red mountains was a great view. We even meet a bulgarian guy who took a backflip on the edge on a cliff!
After some time we went further east and ended up in Winslow where i´m writing this.
Tomorrow we will go to Albuquerque/Santa Fe.
