SKYWALK!!!

This weekend we went to the Grand Canyon Skywalk. It's on the West Rim, a mere 2 1/2 hour drive from Las Vegas. For the price of an arm, a leg and your firstborn child, you can enter the West Rim of the Grand Canyon and walk on the sky.
On the way there, we had to stop for cattle crossing.

And this is this is an image of the Skywalk that I grabbed online. Cameras aren't allowed on the Skywalk, but if you pay another limb they will take your picture for you.

Here is a pic of the special booties you get to wear on the Skywalk.

Walking on it was pretty neat, when you first step out it feels kinda funny, but it's just fine after that, and has a great view of course.
Here are some other pics of the canyon. It really made me nervous to see Matt so near the edge with Sammy.




Somehow this random lady appeared in the bottom of our picture!


And Sammy loved the booties so much that he made us put them back on when we got home.

How fun! I've never been--seeing the Grand Canyon is definitely on my "to-do" list!

I'm pretty sure that is too scary for me! Can I just say how I love the random lady?! She's awesome!
