Traveling and viewing amazing scenery is a must for those who are purposely living our lives to its fullest capacity. There is an uninhibited desire to experience different places, see beautiful artwork, learn about nature and different cultures, and taste new delicious cuisines.
A couple of months ago I had the absolute pleasure of exploring one of the seven natural wonders of the world: the Grand Canyon in Arizona. A few interesting facts about the Grand Canyon:
~ it is a chasm 277 miles long and 18 miles wide
~ it was made a national monument in 1908 and became a national park in 1919
~ the Grand Canyon receives close to 5 million visitors each year. *national geographic visitor center.
