Woke at 7am and left the hotel at the Grand Canyon by 7:30am heading back towards Kingman. We stopped off at the Starbucks in Williams (about 50 miles from GC) at the junction with the main I40 for the normal coffees and breakfast.

Continued dreaming about falling off the Grand Canyon! Anyway, breakfast at El Tovar was an experience: waitresses were unattentive, Vick was burnt on her arm when the coffee was refilled, and my eggs were underdone!

Well I wish I hadn’t started reading that blasted book - ‘Over the edge’. Neither Vick nor I could think about anything other than slipping off the Bright Angel trail and falling to our deaths! What a dreadful night!

Never mind what time we woke (it was 6am by the way), today was Grand Canyon day. We left Kingman and drove 175 miles north east to Grand Canyon Village.
