It's kinda hot

Well Johan and I drove from Tulsa to the Grand Canyon. We're staying at the Circle Pines KOA which is really nice. I definitely recommend camping here if you don't stay near the Park itself. They have an indoor pool and hot tub, bathrooms, showers, a restaurant, and it's clean. Anyway, we went to the IMAX movie and saw that. He bought a DVD copy since it was really cool. We went on a famous mule ride down into the canyon to Indian Gardens and Plateau Point and back up. I had never ridden a mule before, though I had been on horses. He'd never been on a large animal before, but it was his favorite thing ever. His mule was Abel and I had Larry. Larry was cute and I hardly had to whip him. He managed to carry my big butt everywhere. It was kinda hard to get up on him though, but the guides helped me.

They make you drink alot of water and we didn't have any problems though a kid in the other group got sick. The pictures of the canyon were awesome and I got a tan, though I smelled when we left. We met some nice canadians and people from Denmark. Anyway, we ate at the Bright Angel Lodge and walked around and looked at the various things like the Tusayan Museum and the various Points. We stayed on the South Rim though someday I'd like to take the new walk across the canyon on the indian reservation and go to the north rim.

So all in all, it was awesome and we saw several Swedish flags. Johan was happy about that. We saw some bighorn sheep too. :)
