Sunday, July 3, 2022: We met Jill and Jared in the lobby at 7:30 AM. Jill's not mad, just a little sleepy, and Jared was moving a little slowly too, but so were we.
We took an Uber to the airport and used priority check-in and security since we had Priority Select tickets on Southwest.
LEGO! Debbie stopped dead in her tracks but resisted the temptation admirably.
We had breakfast at Tequileria with lots of comfort food and caffeine.
We were the very first to board after a handful of families with children so we scored the only exit row with two seats on a side, which was exactly what we were aiming for.
Soon we were off, ...
... and flying over the Las Vegas Strip.
The very best part of any flight from Las Vegas to Indianapolis is flying over the Grand Canyon, ...
... especially if you can see the river where you lived for a week.
There's the inner gorge where the walls are steep and the river is harder to spot.
Farewell, Colorado River. Until the next time.
This looks a bit like the river but it isn't. It's a strip of land used by the road from Jacob Lake Inn to the Grand Canyon's North Rim. We drove that route last November.
There's the Little Colorado Gorge coming in from the upper left and meeting up with the Colorado River running from lower left to mid-right in this shot.
Oh, and we got snacks ...
... and a drink, so we clinked to a fantastic trip.
