I had always wanted to visit the Grand Canyon since I was a kid, and for whatever reason just simply never made it out to Arizona despite having relatives living in the state. Anyhow, I finally had my chance during a visit to Las Vegas. This was a helicopter trip that took you over the Lake Mead, the Hoover Dam, and dropped you off inside the Grand Canyon where you had a champagne lunch. The whole trip was great, but a warning to females who might want to take this trip, they ask for your weight and you can’t lie about it. On the way back to Vegas they flew down the strip and I was able to take some great pics of Stratos from the air, you can see those pics in the Las Vegas post.
