Continued Earth Tourism, third period
Lana smiled as everyone showed up at Portalocity and quickly led them through the portal. "Earth has a lot of different climates and some really interesting features. Today's is in the same country as Fandom, but very different. Welcome to the Grand Canyon. It's one of the planet's largest canyons, and it really is spectacular, isn't it?" It was a clear and sunny day, not too hot, but with wonderful visibility. "Apparently geologists still argue a bit, but it was almost certainly carved by the Colorado river, which still runs in the bottom of the canyon, and estimates put its development as over the last 70 million years, which makes it an excellent way to view the strata and determine the history of Earth."
She took a breath to just look at it. "We're currently on the south rim." She nodded back toward the nearby buildings. "There are demonstrations of the local culture and shops to buy things, if you like, or you can spend the entire time enjoying the view. Please do not attempt to climb down; I would rather not get us thrown out of the park, as they are rather strict about that. Also, I have bottled water; please stay hydrated, and head inside if you feel yourself growing too warm."
