Grand Canyon Road Trip – Days 07 / 08 – Grand Canyon

For our first full day at the Grand Canyon we took one of the parks shuttle buses. Many of the viewpoints are only available by shuttle bus during the high season. This prevents the parking lots or pull-overs from overflowing with private vehicles allowing more people to enjoy the sights.

We got to the park at 8:30 am and took the sights in until just after 1 am. With our Senior Pass we can afford to leave the park and re-enter later in the evening.

The views are stunning and each view point was unique in its own way. As we were sitting on the bus we saw a couple get on with T-Shirts advertising a High School in Hendersonville where we live. We asked them if they were from Hendersonville and the surprise on their faces was amazing. What a small world.

Here are a few select photos of the Canyon.

When we got back to the Hotel in Tusayan I took a quick trip across the road and charged at the Grand Hotel so we would be ready to start another day. The Supercharger station was empty when I was there for a quick top off. The setup at the Grand hotel is awesome. Twelve Supercharger stalls and beyond that nine Tesla destination charging stations.

On the second full day at the park we took a different bus route. We left the park fairly early and came back in the evening for some sunset views as well.
