Grand Canyon National Park; Rim Trail; Sunset at Mohave Point
Poking into the Visitor Center here was disappointing. I was expecting more—an exhibit or museum, a film, something. I mean, even Hot Springs National Park, a row of bathhouses had a 9-minute bathing film. Come now. 
We hiked some more of the Rim Trail, and caught sunset at Mohave Point, which I thought was a preferable location. There were simply too many people at Hopi Point, clamoring around and complaining, not enough reveling in the show. At Mohave the sun was brighter, the glow fiercer, and the clouds thicker. If there was a show in the clouds, there was a symphony on the rocks. The rays illuminated the formations rosily and I was enchanted. Looking down at the canyon, I knew that I would be back and would hike Rim to Rim. I can hardly wait.
