-the BIL and SIL went on a donkey ride down the Grand Canyon.......the hiking was the fav of some of our other friends. I think I would love the shopping and the dining out, the shows........the sight seeing at the hotels.......YEP, I would go. I might even eventually check out the gambling thing.

We actually go for the room service. I gamble a little. Cyber doesn't gamble. That's why we like cruising.

The Grand Canyon is gorgeous from afar. I can't look down. I'd pass out.

Cyber loves the Hoover/Boulder Dam. Again, I can't look down, but I can look at the statuaries and all. He wants to go on a tour of the Hoover Dam next time we go to Vegas. Thank goodness we don't go there often. But that's the shortcut to my sis's in Truckee.

At age 12, with a ton of cousins and brothers and uncles, went hiking down the (shallower but longer) Bright Angel trail, spent the night at the bottom of the Canyon, then hiked back up the (steeper but shorter) Kaibob Trail.

WORTH THE TRIP!!!!!! WORTH EVERT STEP DOWN AND BACK UP!!!!!

I think what surprised me was how thin the "uncles" thought the air was at the top (8000-odd feet), compared to how much easier they were breathing 5000 feet lower at the bottom!
