Day 18 - Las Vegas to Kingman

Hoover Dam wall
David - touring and driving over Hoover Dam; seeing the new bridge that they've built over the Colorado River which means that we are some of the last people to drive over the dam wall. Awesome.

Megan - sticking my hand out of the ventilation shaft window halfway down the Hoover Dam wall; learning that there's enough concrete in the dam to build a 4 foot wide path around the equator; seeing the Grand Canyon change colour at sunset. Awesome.


The Skywalk

Bridget - jumping on the glass skywalk, 4000 feet above the floor of the Grand Canyon; Mum and Dad buying the photo to prove it. Awesome.

Declan - seeing the native American Indian dancers at Guano Point at Grand Canyon West; eating lunner (it was 4.30pm - too late for lunch, too early for dinner) on the edge of the Canyon, with no guard rails. Awesome.

Patrick - climbing to the top of Guano Point and looking down to the Canyon floor; seeing the biggest Ravens ever - I think they were on Raven steroids. Awesome.
