This is a much anticipated day. We are picked up by a limousine and driven to a local airport where we are going on a helicopter tour of the Grand Canyon. The five of us share the helicopter with another Australian couple and the view is absolutely stunning. Jamille and I only grab each other in fear a couple of times.
As we touch down in the Canyon for a champagne picnic lunch, the Star Wars theme song pipes through our earphones and it feels like we are coming down in a fighter jet in a galaxy far, far away.
