OMG !!!! TODAY WAS FANTASTIC !!! i got to take a helicopter ride from Las Vegas to the Grand Canyon !!!  this was the most exciting thing i have ever done…i was a bit scared at first but once we got going it was fabulous….the views were truly amazing….we flew over the Strip and then over Lake Mead and the Hoover Dam before arriving at the Grand Canyon which was AWSUM!!!   the pilot landed at the base of the Canyon by the Colorado river where we had a picnic and the chance to explore a bit….had to be careful of the cactuses and the wildlife cos there are scorpions, taranchulas and rattle snakes down there AGHHHHH!!!!  This has been the best day of my tour so far…take a look at some of the many piccies i took:
