Antelope Canyon trip for a family of four
We left Qingdao with a family of four and had a direct flight to Las Vegas with a connecting flight in Beijing. After resting in Las Vegas for one night, we started our trip to the Antelope Canyon.
羚羊峡谷（Antelope Canyon）是世界上著名的狭缝型峡谷之一，摄影师最醉心的一处摄影点，位于美国亚利桑纳州北方，最靠近的城市为佩吉(Page, Arizona)，属于纳瓦荷原住民保护区。羚羊峡谷在地形上分为两个独立的部分，称为上羚羊峡谷(Upper Antelope Canyon)与下羚羊峡谷(Lower Antelope Canyon)。上羚羊峡谷在纳瓦荷语中称为“Tse bighanilini”，意思是“有水通过的岩石”，谷地较广，游客较多。其岩壁高耸约有20米，总长约150米，远远看去只有一条很细的裂缝，光线灰暗。下羚羊峡谷在纳瓦荷语中称为“Hasdeztwazi”，意思是“拱状的螺旋岩石”，整年中约有九个月不会开放。其位于地底下，需要爬金属楼梯深入地底，中途还可能需要靠一些绳索才能走完下羚羊峡谷，由于其进入的难度比较高，游客较少。

We left Qingdao with a family of four and had a direct flight to Las Vegas with a connecting flight in Beijing. After resting in Las Vegas for one night, we started our trip to the Antelope Canyon.
During the Christmas holidays, our family drove around the Grand Canyon from Las Vegas, visiting several attractions and national parks along the way, and had an unforgettable Christmas in Las Vegas.
I spared a big circle just to see Horseshoe Bay and Antelope Canyon, and by the way, I saw Lake Powell, which at least completed something in my mind. After stepping into Arizona and moving forward in time by one hour, I began a journey that I will never forget. Unforgettable because there were surprises and touches along the way.
Las Vegas is relatively close to the Grand Canyon and Antelope Canyon, said to be close, in fact, the drive will take five or six hours to get to! But since we came to Las Vegas, it is still a bit regretful not to go, so I signed up for a two-day tour!
We actually took only 2 days to go from Las Vegas to Grand Canyon, Antelope Canyon, Horseshoe Bay and back to Las Vegas. When we arrived in Las Vegas, it was already evening, because we had been here before, so we didn’t watch the show and eat buffet, we strolled around Las Vegas Strip and went to have dinner.
Next trip, Peggy, the location of Antelope Canyon and Horseshoe Bay. The two sites are very close to each other, about 15 minutes drive. The only attraction that requires a fee is Antelope Canyon, because it belongs to the Indians, not the U.S. National Park, each person needs to join a group for 40 yuan (must be enrolled in a group to enter the Antelope Canyon, private cars are not allowed to enter da) according to their own online reservation time.
This day was the most anticipated of the whole trip, better than Yellowstone! Fortunately, both Horseshoe Bay and Antelope Canyon are located 10 minutes away from each other in the small town of Page.
During spring break, I had nothing to do, so I asked my school friends to go out and have fun. After considering the places I’ve been and the places they’ve been, I chose to go to the Grand Canyon, Antelope Canyon, Horseshoe Bay and Lake Powell from Las Vegas.
A promise, a trip, a reunion. I promised amy that I would go to America to play with her before I turned 30, and finally on my 28th birthday, I saved up enough money to go to America, so I took my mom along for the trip ~
How to say it, our trip to the western United States may not be the same as most people’s route, Antelope Canyon I will certainly not miss, but time is very limited, so the route is not so perfect, it may seem to be more around. But these are not important. The important thing is that LK and I have not been together for such a long time since we separated in high school, and we are really happy.
