Today started off with a hearty breakfast at the Pine Country Restaurant in Williams, AZ.

WOW! It was really good... and I wish I had had room for their world famous pie...

which all looked incredible.

From there... we did a little shopping and wandering around town... although at this time of the year; alot of the stores and such are closed down. And so... we decided to drive out to the Grand Canyon and spend the afternoon.

The canyon is just as gorgeous as I remembered from our trip back in September. There were quite a few people there... in spite of the cold... and I was able to chat with people from Switzerland, England and a large group from Japan.

Upon entering the park... I was able to get "up close and personal" with 3 bucks that were wandering about and snacking on some grass. Stunning!

We stayed until sunset... then enjoyed some wonderful food from Dara Thai Cafe in Williams.
