Day two saw us cross the border into AZ. The highlight of the day was a side trip up to the south rim of the Grand Canyon. I'd never seen the Grand Canyon and truly words cannot express the beauty and sheer enormity of the thing. After a brief mix-up in Flagstaff, and a short stop in Winslow, we ended our day by checking in at the Wigwam Motel in Holbrook, AZ. Here are some photo highlights:

We FINALLY made it out of California!
Epcot? Is that you?
(This...thing...was on the side of the road somewhere in Arizona.)
Still gettin' our kicks... Now in Arizona!

Hmm... So this is what it must have been like back in the day!

First views of the Grand Canyon

A rare shot of me out from behind the camera.
(This particular shot will really freak out my mom... I'm not as close to the edge as it looks, though!)

Breathtaking views everywhere you turn

No trip to a national park is complete without this cheesy tourist photo!

Here we are asking Zelda (Steph's GPS) how to find the Wigwam Motel in Flagstaff, AZ. Problem is, there was a little mix-up, and the Wigwam Motel isn't IN Flagstaff. Perhaps that's why we were having trouble finding it!

As the Eagles song goes...
Take it easy!
Finally, we found the Wigwam -- in Holbrook, AZ!

Yes, two beds, a TV, and bathroom with toilet, sink and shower all fit in one of these!

Mater? Where's Lightening McQueen?

Day 3 will be coming soon!
