Ever since 2013 I have done a driving trip in April, May or June. Unfortunately this year due to the coronavirus pandemic I had to cancel my April driving trip … I was planning to return to the Grand Canyon for another hike down into the canyon.
I decided in March to try a digital trip using photos from previous trips I had taken … including a few from 1970 and 1972 trips I took with my parents and brothers.
I created a Flickr album and posted photos each day as if I were driving my originally proposed route …
The trip included staying on the Queen Mary in Long Beach, at Bright Angel Lodge in the Grand Canyon and on the Delta King in Sacramento … I had visited the Queen Mary in 1972 and had previously stayed at both Bright Angel Lodge and the Delta King before … I was looking forward to returning but the coronavirus made that impossible. The trip also including returning to Yosemite National Park which I last visited in 1970.
The digital trip was a way for me to relive the past and survive the present!
Here are a few photos from that “trip” …
