Day 8: Route 66 - Grand Canyon

Today's drive fron Lake Havasu to the Grand Canyon would probably be pretty boring and uneventful if it wasn't for all the oddities we see along the way. In the state of Arizona you can for example find the original London Bridge, disassembled, shipped and reassembled for several million Dollars. Driving along historic Route 66 we stop in the town of Hackberry, whose entire population could just about fit into our van. At the 50's diner we stop afterwards you need to be prepared for all the ways you will be messed with. In the late afternoon we arrive at the Grand Canyon National Park. While Caroline, Ruby, Phinn, Mila, Ella, Birdie and Werner get to know the Canyon via helicopter ride, Jasmin, McKiwi, Lorelai, Maria and me get the Canyon introduction a la Mike. Making our way to the rim with paper bags over our heads, we don't get to see the Canyon right until we get to the edge of it.
