We finally made it to the Grand Canyon National Park after "mina" advised us to leave the highway and cruise on dirt roads through the National Forrest for about three hours. This was actual a very nice experience until "mina" told us to turn left/right without any sign of other roads.
We arrived tired in the late afternoon - no lunch, but the view is just amazing.
There was also this nice girl, who introduced herself as A7 (I was told later, she is one of the 76 condors in grand canyon, that were set free as young birds some time ago - and none of the three rangers has been to a condor so close before).
We got even closer while the rangers were thinking how to deal with it. I was waiting for her to finally spread her wings, when she decided after two hours that she'd like to get to know me better.
As those birds are very curious, and human are their number one danger, one of the rangers finally chased her off (after taking some photographs himself, and telling us, that she has to learn human are unpredictable) - unfortunately in a direction where it was impossible to get a good shot.
But I won't complain - just call me Lord of Beasts.
