This year we went to Horseshoe Bend and Antelope Canyon. We came through Las Vegas and then woke up early the next day to take a bus to these historic and national treasures. It was a long ride but well worth the trip. The weather cooperated perfectly and the crowds were not too bad so we were able to navigate easily at both locations. Our kids liked both places but I think the last one was the better of the two. Our tour guide, who was Japanese, gave us camera tips too that I think will get good use for our pictures going forward. Antelope Canyon has a lot of history – a few notables include that it’s millions of years old and didn’t become popular until after the 1990s in part due to social media. It has a lot of animals inside that will challenge your imagination and even dragon eyes — our tour guide helped us uncover these mystical elements with our camera. I think Noah has the most phone with camera and Olivia was probably more eager to get back home but I’m sure this memory will stay with them for years to come. Many thanks to Ryoko for planning this amazing adventure.
