South Rim

We spent a touristy day at the south rim - eating ice cream in front of the Bright Angel Lodge and staring down over the edge like everyone else (there were lots of everyone elses), checking out the IMAX, and taking the shuttle bus out to Hermit's Rest. We looked for glimpses of the river - from Pima Point we could see the tail end of Granite Rapid and all of Hermit, though they were an awful long ways away. It was neat seeing the Wen, one of the original Nevill's cataract boats, on display at the visitor's center, although I suspect we were mainly remembering riding in the Sandra with Greg during the previous two weeks.
