Destination was US and first stop New York.

After a few days we flew to Denver where we headed towards the Rocky Mountains.

Second stop on our roadtrip was South Dakota where we climbed the highest peak to enjoy the view.

We said hello to our friends, the Buffalos...

...as well as the presidents at Mount Rushmore.

After a long day of driving we came to the national park Yellowstone.

I was impressed by the power of nature.

The air was thin and the smell of sulfur didn't make my headache any better, but oh so beautiful!

I was stunned by the hot springs in the sulfur grounds in Yellowstone. I wanted to stay there forever.

Sulfur.

After a few weeks we came to Kanab, Utah. The typical western village.

We went hiking in Zion and met many of theese.

We went south again, to Page in Arizona. There we where dazed by the Colorado rivers "Horse Shoe Bend".

We took a day of and spent it by the Colorado river, devoted to water sports.

Even grandma went jet skiing.

South again, my first sight of Grand Canyon.

Hiking in the heat, down towards the Colorado river in Grand Canyon.

After 2 hours of hiking we reach our goal, what we didn't know was that we were facing 3 hours of the worst hike evere to get back in the heat.

Totally exhausted after the 5-hour hike we watched the sunset over Grand Canyon and all pains just disappeared.

We were close to the end when we stopped by the Hoover dam.

After a day in Vegas it was time to fly back home again.
