It was early in the morning, the bus picked me up, exactly as schedule 6.10 am. I was a bit worried, the day before i woke up at 11am. Haha. The day tour cost me USD 90. Lucky the pick up point was just in front of the hotel.
The bus took us to their depot. Then i registered myself and was assigned to bus no 4. I grab some danish and coffee and queue. I sat close to driver as i wanted to seat infront. The driver bawa anjing pulak.. hiah. But then since dlm cage, buat tak tahu dah la.
This tour ended 10pm. It has been a looooong day but worth it. The best part was the bus has free wifi. Awesome kan. Tak la boring sgt sorang2.
The bus make few stop before reached Grand Canyon. First stop was the Hoover Dam. It was huge. Tapi kan.. tak sibuk pulak nak tgk dam kat Malaysia.
Next stop, the old railway station where we had our lunch buffet. They said buffet lunch was good. Lucky there was wild mushroom rice and veggie. Itulah my lunch.
We arrived Grand Canyon almost 3pm. We have two options. Walk or take the bus. I wanted to walk the trail but i'm worried to walk alone. Kot la sesat. Its almost 4km and by 5 pm already dark.
As i wondered alone from Mather Point, i accidently bump into Canadian family that have the same tag of bus number 4. I asked them if they will be walking to Bright Angel Point. They said Yes and I asked if i can follow them. Yeay!
So this is the glimpse of how the trail of time looks like. Covering 2 billion years of Grand Canyon.
The Canadian family of 4 had been great company. We chit chat a bit before i said thank you and departed. I felt grateful or else rugi tak walk along the trail.
I slept on the way back to Las Vegas. The bus stop me infront of the hotel. It has been a great solo day trip.
