How would you feel if you were at the Grand Canyon?
I don't exactly know what it feels like to be standing in the grand canyon, but I have flown over the grand canyon in a plane tour. Although the experience is very different than standing down at the ground, the grand canyon was still incredible. Being on a plane also gave me a better view, the whole tour I wondered how it was possible a river could have cut through these vast rocks and left such a giant crack on the ground.
