Day 14
Winslow, Arizona
Along the famous Route 66
We started out this morning heading for the Grand Canyon. Beautiful does not do this natural wonder justice.
Another picture of the canyon. (Taken from the observation tower pictured below)
Observation tower at the Grand Canyon National Park. We went inside the tower and climbed to the top.
Down the road while looking for a place to stop for lunch we saw a sign for the "Meteor Crater".
Of course we had to go.
A five minute detour off the road and we were there. After paying an admission fee we climbed tons of stairs to look at this huge crater.
Two miles across it is the largest preserved crater in the world.
A genuine piece of the meteor that caused the crater. The entire meteor was estimated to be about the size of half a football field.
