South Rim National Park {Grand Canyon RV Trip: Day 2} June 24

Today's road travel: 2 hrs 45 minutes to Grand Canyon Village: South Rim


Loved seeing the different landscape, sure is desert!


RV happenings, not much, lol. 



New terrain as we near the Grand Canyon


Stop for lunch!



Stop at the visitor center, a little disappointing so we didn't stay long. Another half hour into the park. 


This map was cool at the visitor center. 


We made it to the park about 1:00, plenty of day left to explore. 




We decided to drive the RV up to Grand Canyon Village before parking at our camping spot which was in the park. This provided a short walk trail to the south rim overlook. 




 










took pictures to try and plan our following day



We then walked back to the parked RV and drove to our campsite at Trailer Village to check in and get the RV all hooked up. Once settled we did take another jaunt out, hopping on the shuttle. 




We rode the shuttle to the area near Bright Angel Trail and stopped in at the lodge. 








We didn't hike the Bright Angel Trail, but we did see the trailhead.











We shuttled back to home base and when we arrived there was an elk wandering camp!




We had dinner and the kids played baseball. 



Another late night elk:


Playing with camp neighbor kids. 


Took some night photos. Wish I could share the ones from may camera... but not happening :-( 



Thankfully my photo took pretty amazing photos as well.
