After my Antelope Canyon trip this past June, I realized that I have developed a different kind of appreciation for Mother Nature. She is incredible.

welcome to lower antelope canyon
Why is it awesome? (Yes, awesome. The real definition of awesome.) This canyon was formed by erosion....Imagine that. W A T E R and A I R. Sure, we've all seen majestic landforms but this is underground. Walking through this narrow canyon felt like I was part of an expedition. The best part was looking up and enjoying the view. I didn't want to move an inch but we all had to keep walking. The General Tour is only an hour long. Well.....not long enough. All of these photos were taken using an iPhone 6. Note to self: use the chrome filter next time. Most of these photos were taken by me. Two photos were taken by our tour guide. She was the best! And hilarious! Of course I forgot her name. Hi Miss Tour Guide! If you're reading this...thank you for helping us out with our camera! Yes, YOU!!! The granddaughter of the person who owns the touring company. We totally scored. Guided tours are required because Antelope Canyon is on Navajo land. A friend recommended Ken's Tours and we booked the 8:30 a.m. tour. This is the best time to go during summer. Trust me. Don't forget your sunscreen, bottle of water and cash for parking. We left Phoenix on Saturday and did the tour the following day. We stayed at the Clarion Inn because it is closest to the canyon. Don't worry about food. There's Big John's Texas Barbecue across the street. I think that was the best barbecue experience I've ever had! We are going back to check out Upper Antelope Canyon in a couple of months! I will be sharing that trip with you for sure! Has anyone been?? Tips? Next adventure suggestions? Give me a shout!
So this is why I appreciate Mother Nature even more. Her artwork never disappoints. She made all of these places for us to see and experience. We need her more than she needs us. Let's not piss her off.
