Today we traveled on the Grand Canyon Rail Road. When we got into the train, the man give a lecture for 10 minutes. The man told us the story about the history in Williams town in 1800’s. The people during that time they travel by stagecoach pulled by horses to the Grand Canyon. Their ride was about 8 hours then after that they invented a steam train on September 17, 1901. The train ride was 3 hour it was much better for the people who can travel to the Grand Canyon.
The ride was fun. We saw lots of cows, random trees, plants, and few houses out the window. A man played the violin and we all danced in the aisle of the train. The man let Kayla M. play the violin for short time. She did a wonderful job playing the violin. Miss Julie Ann Mountain taught us how to dance the waltz. While the man played the song called “The Tennessee Waltz” on the violin, we danced!!! Then some groups of students went walking though the cars for get the snacks. It was awkward feeling when we walked between the cars because it was wobbling. Too many people were in our way when we walked through the isles. It took us 5 minutes to finally get to the snack bar. Students ordered one snack and one drink. We then walked the 8 cars back to our seat-- it was a long way to go and there was a strange sliding door between each car and if a person didn’t hold the door they would be slammed against the wall. Soon we saw the grand canyon from our windows and when we arrived we were ready to get out for more adventure!
