Day 20:

left: Las Vages, Nevada at 1pm
Arrived: Grand Canyon, Arizona at 7pm
via: The Hoover Dam, Nevada/Arizona state line; part of the olf route 66
States: Nevada, Arizona
Distance: 273 miles

We hung around Vages for an hour or so before hitting the road for the Grand Canyon. We stopped at the Hoover Dam on the State Line between Nevada and Arizona for a while. I think it's the one of the biggest Dam in the world, it's pretty impressive not to mention huge. We drove on Historic Route 66 for a few miles, it's the famous (over here anyway) route that people used to take across the country. Before getting back on the way to the Grand Canyon. We got there about an hour after sunset. It actually looked quite good in moonlight. It was too dark to et any photos though.




It was so hot in the car by about 12 in the afternoon, that the bananna was cooking when we opened it.












I think the route ran from Chicago to Los Vages.
















Down one side of the Hoover Dam. This thing was big.
