Exploring the Grand Canyon: Accessible Wonders.

The Grand Canyon is one of those places that you cannot describe in words. We made a 3 hour drive from Scottsdale, Arizona to spend the day at the Grand Canyon and the drive was well worth it!
The Accessible Canyon
I remember feeling anxious with excitement as we entered the National Park Service gate. The parking area is huge and there are plenty of accessible parking spaces as well as an accessible shuttle bus. Even though we arrived early in the day, most of the parking spaces were already filled. After we parked, we took an accessible pathway to the edge of the South Rim to a spot that wasn’t crowded and silently looked over the handrail across and down into the Canyon. It was emotional as it kind of takes your breath away.
You read about the Grand Canyon. Maybe you see the Grand Canyon online or in a television show. But nothing can prepare you for the moment when you are there and at the top of the rim – taking it all in. It’s magnificent. It’s beautiful. It’s peaceful. And, it’s overwhelming. All at once! We walked along the accessible paved pathway on the South Rim and completely loved the views and sites of the Canyon. I was also shocked by the number of people who literally disobeyed signs and took their life into their hands by crawling out onto the edge of cliffs and jagged rocks just to capture “the selfie” with no regard for anyone.
