Has has anyone been to the Grand Canyon. My parents are taking me there in a couple of months and i think that we are going to go on the Skywalk. Is it worth it?

Simple answer the grand Canyon is really well worth seeing from any view point.
Parents paying even better.
There are places in the world that are way better than any texting, phone chat or app.
Go see!

When I went there was like 50 years ago and there wasn't a sky walk. But I caught a horny toad which was cool because they don't have those in Hawaii. I wanted to take him home but my parents wouldn't let me even bring it back to the car. If you are a nature loving kind of person there is a lot of spectacular nature there. There is rafting and helicopters and mule rides or hiking/camping. It's a desert type of climate.
So what is worse.... dying or regretting it for the rest of my life? Obviously I chose not regretting it.

Its awesome! its got a pucker factor of 9. There is usually an indian there who tells a story of an eagle rock formation that you can see just to the east of that. well worth your time to listen to. You can do the hoover dam tour. If your adventurous Id do a white water rafting day trip. It is beautiful country out there in my opinion. Not sure what month your going but when they say don't worry its a dry heat its still freaking hot at 120 degrees. of course Vegas is right there as well.
