Hello All Yes! Our 5 year Wedding Anniversary arrived.  We celebrated by visiting Grand Canyon,  by railway! We drove the 1.3 hour drive to Williams, AZ and the train depot. We traveled 1st Class for the two hour ride to Grand Canyon Village. We arrived @ 11:45 AM! 1st look is always breathtaking! We even hiked down into the canyon a bit,  through the archway cut into the rock. An Artist at work! Selfie?? We returned to Williams just before sundown and  had dinner at "Cruiser's Diner" on Route 66. Good food and live music!!
