Visiting the Grand Canyon
Last summer, my family and I went to visit the Grand Canyon in the US A. It was a long trip, but we were all excited because we had heard so much about this amazing natural wonder.
When we arrived, we first went to the visitor center to get some information. The guide told us that the Grand Canyon is about 446 kilometers long and up to 29 kilometers wide. It was hard to 1 how huge it is until we stood on its edge. We looked down, and the canyon seemed to go on forever. The river below looked like a small silver line.
The next morning, we decided to hike along one of the trails. The path was a bit steep, but the views were worth it. As we walked, we saw rocks of different colors—red, orange, and even purple. The guide explained that these colors came from the minerals in the rocks. We also saw many unique 2 of rocks, some like animals and some like trees.
At noon, we sat under a big tree to have lunch. The air was fresh, and the only sounds were the wind blowing and the birds singing. It was so 3 that we forgot about all our worries. In the afternoon, the sun 4 brightly, and the canyon looked even more beautiful. We took lots of photos to remember this special day.
On our way back, my parents and I had a 5 about which part of the trip was the best. I thought the morning hike was the most interesting, but my mom liked the quiet afternoon best. No matter what, we all agreed that the Grand Canyon was not just big—it was truly wonderful.
