怎麼敢⁉️【帶雙方父母去美國自助玩13天🇺🇸】世界奇景大峽谷推薦行程!美國自駕自由行

Hello everyone We went to the United States to have fun in April What’s different this time is, This time we brought both sets of parents, my in-laws and my parents, to the United States for a trip. Although it’s not their first time in the United States, having four parents traveling together does make me a bit worried, one way or another. Additionally, the distance traveled this time by car is also longer. Besides going to the Grand Canyon, we will also visit Las Vegas and San Francisco. Let’s take a look at how we had fun this time! This time we flew directly from Taoyuan Airport to San Francisco, USA. After more than 11 hours of flight, we arrived at San Francisco Airport at 8 PM local time. It’s a little past 7 (almost 8), and it’s still quite bright. I originally thought it would take a long time to get through customs, but surprisingly it went quite smoothly. The first thing to do is to rent a car near the airport. Because there are more people and suitcases This time we rented a seven-seater car It’s truly a miracle that five suitcases fit just right! (Still need to drive for another hour to the hotel…) This trip lasts a total of 13 days. The first stop we are heading to is the Grand Canyon The distance from San Francisco to the Grand Canyon is actually quite long Considering factors such as driving distance, time difference, and physical condition We stayed overnight halfway before continuing on. It wasn’t until around 4 PM on the third day that we finally arrived in Page, Arizona. ~ Driving has been tough ~ After driving for a long time, we finally arrived at this place called ‘Peggy’! There is a big dam there Many people who visit the Grand Canyon tend to stay in Page The main reason is that there are more hotels to choose from here. There are also many famous attractions. For example, the Glen Canyon Dam, Horseshoe Bend, and Antelope Canyon are all nearby. (Quite a steep downhill) Almost the entire day was spent in the car driving But after seeing the scenery near the Glen Canyon Dam, I felt completely revitalized. The views of the canyon are truly spectacular. It also makes us look forward to what the scenery of the Grand Canyon will be like next. Next, we continue to the nearby ‘Horseshoe Bend’. He is at a horseshoe bend canyon near Page City along the Colorado River. We have now arrived at Page~ Next, we are going to see his most famous attraction, ‘Maui Bay.’ It takes a short walk from the parking lot to ‘Maui Bay.’ (It seems like you can see it, but not quite.) I’ve walked quite a distance… I originally thought it would just be a short walk, but it turns out to be quite far. Do you think… Dad would want to climb over there? Don’t bring up what shouldn’t be mentioned… I originally thought it was a spot where you could just park and get out to take photos. But I didn’t expect that we still had to walk a short distance. Plus, the wind was really strong at that moment… My whole body is covered in sand So beautiful~ There are a lot of tourists gathered next to Horseshoe Bay The entire scenery is truly magnificent If you look closely, you can see someone building a boat down below. This is a highly recommended attraction in Arizona. (Are there many trees like Da Jie…?) We chose to stay at the ‘Courtyard by Marriott Page at Lake Powell’ in Page Town. In addition to a great location, it’s also relatively convenient to get to the attractions. The room has this kind of feeling~ The garden outside is quite beautiful… we can go out for a walk later. And there are many large cypress trees (Mediterranean cypress). There are quite a few restaurants and supermarkets nearby. The courtyard is very well maintained, which left a great impression on us. For dinner, we chose to eat inside the hotel. Considering the larger portion size In the end, we decided to share The price of the red wine was surprisingly not too expensive! And it was quite good^^ Now we’ve arrived at ‘Monument Valley’ You can drive around inside and visit many attractions. Right after entering and buying the tickets, you will first see the visitor center. It looks warm here, but it’s actually quite cold because of the higher altitude. It seems like wearing short sleeves is enough, but actually (all of us) are wearing down jackets. The next morning, we continued driving to Monument Valley. It’s about a two-hour drive from the town of Page. Monument Valley is part of the Colorado Plateau. Here you can see many different giant rocks Although Monument Valley is very large, you can drive around slowly inside without needing to walk all the time Bringing Dad and Mom here is quite a relaxing spot. After a leisurely stroll through Monument Valley in the morning. In the afternoon, we returned to Page to participate in the tour of ‘Lower Antelope Canyon’. Antelope Canyon is located within a protected area, so you basically have to join a local tour to enter and visit. This time, we participated in the longer route of ‘Lower Antelope Canyon’. There are many restrictions when participating. For example, you can’t bring luggage and filming is completely prohibited. Although I can only look at photos for memories, the unique terrain is truly impressive. The entire journey is actually not very difficult to walk. There was also a little child over 2 years old in the same group that day. Taking photos while enjoying the changes in the terrain is really very interesting. After leaving Peggy Town, we drove for another two and a half hours We finally arrived at the Grand Canyon National Park (The sun is about to set… rushing to see the sunset) Before heading to the hotel, we hurried to Mather Point to watch the sunset over the Grand Canyon. I can only say that luck is really on my side! I almost missed it. The sunset at the Grand Canyon is truly spectacular! It’s so beautiful! Even though the current perceived temperature is extremely cold (1-2 degrees). But there are still a lot of tourists around! Let’s eat steak~ ??? It’s freezing cold early in the morning… (There are really wild deer! And there are two of them) (I thought it was fake… but they are grazing) Why do I have to get up so early… Because there’s someone… who wants to see the sunrise! He just wants to see the sunrise~ (Running wildly again….) The sunset from the day before moved my husband deeply! He couldn’t stop praising it. So the next morning, before dawn, at just past 5 o’clock… he wanted to set out to see the sunrise. Although he didn’t see the moment the sun rose from behind the Grand Canyon, this sunrise was truly beautiful. We consider ourselves quite lucky to have seen the sunset the day before and the sunrise the next day. Although we didn’t stay in one of the small cabins inside the Grand Canyon, we stayed in a town about a 15-minute drive away, which was actually quite convenient. Because it was still very early. So we let the parents rest at the hotel. The two of them secretly went to another viewpoint for a little sunrise date, just like that… I mean, if you dig up your wife, then you dig up your wife… Then he has a trail that connects to the viewpoint where we watched the sunset yesterday. So now we are going to walk to Mather Point. The temperature is 3 degrees. At first glance, it seems quite cold, but it’s actually pretty comfortable. It feels a bit like winter in Japan. The weather in the morning is much better than the previous day. The wind is lighter and there’s sunlight shining down. It’s much warmer overall! Although it requires getting up early and is a bit tiring, watching the sunrise at the Grand Canyon is highly recommended. You need to buy a ticket to enter the Grand Canyon National Park. When we passed by yesterday, there was no one at the ticket booth. You enter by purchasing a ticket through the ticket machine The ticket is valid for one week (Everything looks like a forest except for the observation deck…) (Picking up my parents at the hotel) (Everyone is in great spirits today) (Back to the viewpoint where we just watched the sunrise) (To take the red line bus) At Grand Canyon National Park, you can basically only take their shuttle bus to visit the attractions. This time we took the longest red line with the most attractions. The bus runs approximately every 10 to 15 minutes and will stop at different viewpoints along the way. The scenery here is really beautiful. Each observation deck has its own unique features To be honest, it’s hard to choose which one is the most beautiful If you have enough time, you might as well visit a few more! There are three bus routes inside the Grand Canyon. One line is red, one line is blue, and one line is orange. The orange line mainly circles the eastern side of the Grand Canyon. Then the blue line is a connector route between the east and the west. The red line is a sight on the west side of the Grand Canyon Actually, I think it’s not bad to bring my parents to the Grand Canyon Because they can have a lot of fun taking photos here. Although we walked a bit, since we took the park bus, we didn’t have to walk for long periods of time. It’s much better compared to those places where you have to walk 10,000 to 20,000 steps in a day! And the weather here is nice… it’s a pretty good choice for a filial piety trip. It’s just that the person driving will be more tired… (Thank you for your hard work) There are no guardrails here, it’s exciting~~ In the morning, there aren’t many tourists yet The weather is great, making everything very pleasant and comfortable^^ No matter which attraction you go to, it’s all very photogenic It seems that the parents are also having a great time It is also one of the most unforgettable attractions on their trip to the United States. In fact, no matter how you look at it, you never get tired of it… But there’s really no way to choose which one is the prettiest from the inside. I really can’t pick one… But I think each one is actually quite nice~ The Grand Canyon is a landmark that I’ve heard about since I was young. Once I actually arrived here, the scenery was truly spectacular. Plus, the weather was really nice, making the entire trip very comfortable. Although it takes longer to drive due to the traffic situation. But it was truly an unforgettable experience! If you have the chance, you must come and see it! This trip is not over yet. Next, we will take our parents to Las Vegas and San Francisco. We’ll share more in the next video! Well, that’s it for this video! Bye bye!

#大峽谷 #美國公路之旅 #travel

這次的旅行我們帶著雙方父母一起來到美國玩
不僅是4位爸媽第一次來到美國旅遊
也是他們第一次一起出來旅遊!

雖然出發前稍微有點緊張(似乎只有我自己 笑)
畢竟坐車時間比較久加上有時差等等的問題
非常擔心4位60+的父母會不會不習慣
所幸在看到大峽谷壯觀的景色之後爸媽們真的超興奮超開心!

想帶長輩一起去大峽谷挑戰一下自駕行程的話
一起來看看吧!

今回はいつもとちょっと違う旅
なんと、私たち夫婦の両親――つまり、両家の親4人を連れてアメリカへ行ってきました!

4人ともアメリカ本土は初めて、
しかも、親同士で一緒に旅行するのも今回が初めてなんです。

実は出発前、ちょっと不安もありました(多分、私だけですが…笑)
長時間のフライトや時差ボケ、そして還暦を過ぎた両親たちの体力が心配で…。

ですが、グランドキャニオンの絶景を目の前にしたとき、
嬉しそうに笑う親たちの顔を見て、
「やっぱり来てよかったな」と心から思いました^^

グランドキャニオン旅行に興味がある方、
また、「両親を連れての海外旅行って実際どうなの?」と思っている方、
ぜひこの動画を見てみてください^^
