For mid-winter break, we flew into Las Vegas and planned to drive to Flagstaff for the night before heading to the Grand Canyon. Easier said than done! We got stuck in a blizzard that closed the freeway before Flagstaff with no viable detours. After nearly 8 hours in the car, we made our way back to Kingman, AZ for the night. We debated heading back to LV in the morning vs. Grand Canyon and decided to risk the road again for Grand Canyon. It was dicey, but we made it and had some gorgeous views. We hiked along the rim trail and then drove back to Vegas.
While in Vegas, we toured the strip, went to the Real Bodies exhibit, had some good meals (2 Thai dinners, 1 at True Kitchen). John went to the Metallica concert. We also hung out with Julia's soccer friends and watched them go 1-2 in the tournament. It wasn't there greatest showing but some good takeaways and beautiful weather. We also did some hiking at Valley of Fire State Park which was really beautiful.
