Hi, Julia. I just got a comment from a reader who said my linky entry takes her to the wrong post. Here’s the right one, I think: http://diabeticredemption.com/2013/01/30/finally-100-word-challenge-for-grownups-week-75/ I’m sorry about this!

I don’t travel much anymore.
Instead, I like use Google Maps to look at famous places a lot.
People link photos to that sites, and I imagine walking through the streets of Berlin… riding a camel past the Pyramids… leaning on the rail of a paddlewheel boat on the Mississippi…
The Grand Canyon’s walls are a smeary blur in Google Maps.
The satellite photos don’t do it justice. And the tourists can’t quite cover all its greatness.
I want to go there and see it for myself.
And for the first time since I broke my neck, I feel self-pity.

When I saw the Grand Canyon I was young. I was unable to understand or appreciate it’s beauty. It makes me sad because I feel like I missed out on something that was right in front of my face!
When I was at the Grand Canyon it was breath taking and awe inspiring. We were not at this location though. When I did research on it, I am glad I didn’t see it from this view in person. Just looking at the pictures made me nervous and my stomach upset. I don’t think I could have walked out on that glass bottom floor. I didn’t realize I was afraid of heights until I read about and saw this photo. It’s a beautiful sight, the Grand Canyon, but I couldn’t go out on this ledge to see it.
BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!
