To go to Grand Canyon early in the morning, I woke up at 5:00 am. Meeting up at the front 5:30 and then we headed for Grand Canyon. Though my programme mate drove to the destination, I fell asleep shortly during our drive. After one hour driving, we arrived in Grand Canyon with snow in coudy condition. It was my second time to visit Grand Canyon, the scenery was totally different from the last visit in summer but similarly so fabulous. We drove around the parkm Mother View Point, Snake Point and the view from both view points were also magnificent.

 

 

 

 

 

We left Grand Canyon then turned to another destination, Antelope Canyon. At the reception, we reserved the tour from 12:15 pm. When the time came, the gudie started for four participants. In the tour, the guide eagerly explained us know how to take pictures of beauty but for me it was rather annyoing. On contrary, the other two participants were a couple, thus I guessed they ware really enjoyed to take many pictures for their memory. It was not impressive than I expected. 

 

 

 

 

We returned to Fragstaff and I checked in the hotel on campus of Northern Arizona Unieversity. While I checked in the hotel, my programme mate picked up the delegation composed by my colleagues in Japan and I met them in front of the  reception. They were really astounished at the hotel or restarurant since they were well equipped  on campus. 

 

We had diner at the restaurant in the hotel and talked about the current situation of my workplace in Japan, the experiences through this special training programme in the US. I and programme mate planed to take them to the brewery but we ceased to propose this idea because all member of the delegation were looked so exhausted.  

 

After the diner, I and my colleague smoked in front of the reception and talking about my suggestion to go to the brewery. Perfectlly, my programme mate had come, we decided to go to the brewery where we enjoyed local beer yesterday. It was so fun to talk with my colleagues about the situation and activities of my workplace in Japan.
