The grand canyon and the Beatles......

Well five of us rose early prior to sparrows for a visit to the grand canyon. Mel (soft) slept in and went shopping.
We traveled by a variety of methods in this order. Bus > plane > bus > helicopter > foot > boat > foot > helicopter > bus > plane > bus. It was a very very big day but absolutely brilliant and something we won't soon forget.
Our helicopter

Once we got home and re-adjusted we had a great meal at a Brazilian restaurant in the mirage casino. Fiona thought it was the best steak she had ever had.  Nod had the brazilian banquet, in related news nod has advised everyone the he has not had a sit down visit to the loo since leaving oz.  The local authorities have a monitor any movements alert out on him.  More to come in this 'hopefully' soon to be emerging story - at least for MA's sake.
On a 'much lighter note we then went to see love - by cirque de Soleil. It was an amazing show. No photos were allowed so u just have to take our word for it.
Was a great night finished off with some fishing via a pokie machine. Top fun and another am finish in Vegas.
