Part four..........

Ok, now we are supposed to get back on the road for home,  but wait...one more day.........ok, now we sign up for a raft trip down the Colorado, we pick the easy flat water one, nice and relaxing.  Once again the four of us, Steve Nan John Deb, head to town, register, listen to the orientation, hop on the bus and ride to the bottom of the Glen Canyon Dam through a 2 mile tunnel (yikes its dark) where we load into the rafts - our group fills three rafts (this is the slow season).

 a nice easy relaxing 4 hour trip down the river

The canyon walls get higher and higher as we wind our way 15 miles down to Lees Ferry, 
where we end our trip



 Cold and Clear
we manage a quick step into the Colorado River


the end of the day we return home - for Chips and Beer of course!
