Grand Canyon, AZ

This trip to Arizona was Patrick's 13th birthday gift. We took him on a train ride to the Grand Canyon and to see the Diamondbacks. How lucky is that boy?

We flew to Phoenix and drove to Williams, AZ where we spent the night at the Downtowner Motel.


Boy, was it HOT during our visit! In Patrick's own words "It's like hell, man"


We woke up bright and early the next day to watch a wild west show, check out some trains before getting on the train to the Grand Canyon.

All aboard!


And then it was on to the helicopter to see the Grand Canyon like it should be seen!


After the helicopter ride, we took the train back to Williams, AZ and were entertained when the robbers jumped on our train!


When the train arrived in Williams, we drove back to Phoenix (long day!) and stayed downtown at the lovely Palomar hotel.


The next day was Father's Day and a day at the baseball park courtesy of his grandparents!
