One for the Bucket List! – Colorado River Vacation

I had high expectations for this trip because of its large price tag - my other river trips were no where near this expensive. It was money well spent! Just getting to the Grand Canyon and back was an adventure: Airplane, helicopter, jetboat, and tour bus - How fun! Still, the absolute best was the river itself - a once in a lifetime experience. Our guides were fun, friendly and knowledgeable and had a great sense of adventure. We got rained on everyday our guides embraced it with enthusiasm which was infectious for the rest of us. Come on, how many people get to experience a thunder and lightning storm in the Grand Canyon??? Simply breathtaking!

The food was great, our tents and cots were comfortable and the camping spots were beautiful. I didn't really take any pictures because I was busy looking at the amazing scenery, holding on for dear life in the rapids or having fun cliff jumping. Pictures can't do the memories justice anyway.

The only bad thing was that it was not long enough - I am definitely going to do the 6 day trip when I get the time.  Western River Expeditions you ROCK!!!
