Our first stop today was at the Four Corners monument where four US States meet at one intersection and it is possible to be in all of them at the same time by standing in two and reaching down and touching the others.
From Four Corners we drove to Monument Valley which was everything that I expected it to be and there was a magnificent view from the visitor centre across the whole of the valley.
What followed next was another highlight of the holiday when Richard and I left the coach to go on an optional small plane journey for a flight from Monument Valley all the way down the Grand Canyon.

We too went over the Grand Canyon in a small plane – totally amazing!

Actually, I found Grand Canyon too big too fully appreciate and I preferred the smaller National Parks that my head could deal with!

I haven’t visited any of the other national parks. Still on the bucket list.

Not so sure that I would want to be in USA right now.

I have never been in a plane over the canyon. The thing for me is just that first look when you stand on the rim and look out. It’s incomprehensibly vast.

So big for me that I couldn’t take it in. If I am honest I preferred the smaller parks like Arches and Zion.

I agree with you there. Zion has long been a favourite.
