The Ride of the Valkyries

Day 7: Grand Canyon

Started our day by taking one of the optional excursions on the tour - a helicopter flight over the GC. Fantastic. Lots of photos taken and lots of rubbish due to reflections in the plexiglass canopy.

At the time this shot was taken we were en route from the airport to the south rim of the canyon and flying pretty low over the trees, we had "The Ride of the Valkyries" playing in our headsets and seconds later, the ground suddenly dropped away by a few thousand feet, our stomachs gave a little lurch and we were over the canyon.

Goose bumps all round.
I'm so glad you had this opportunity as I know you always try to get an aerial tour! The results are so worth it.

Beautiful. And the fact they have music playing too is wonderful. You will never hear that piece of music again without thinking of this.
