Some people have shown an interest in doing this trip. I was thinking of 2009 or 2010 for this trip of a lifetime in August or Sept. The River is grade 3/4 and will have support raft with guides All food and camping gear will be provided. The length of the trip is approx 13 to16 days depends on the company we go with. I will hopefully will end my stay in Las Vegas for 3/4 days The Grand Canyon trip costs approx 3200 Dollars (2400 euro) Flights approx 600 euro The plan is to open a bank account and start putting away the money If we go in 2009 have to save 125 euro a month If we go in 2010 have to save 84 euro a month Can people let know if you have an interest before I do too much research into this. Cheers Niall

Hi Niall, Yep we'd like to go but could only really go in 2010. Paul didn't factor a trip like this into our wedding plans for 2009! Very remiss of him. Don't think we'd have enough annual leave and money for a wedding and Grand Canyon trip in the one year!! Aine

Hi Niall,
I would be interested in 2010. Im not sure if your bank account idea will work (mandates would be a nightmare ;D ;D ;D ;D) also you could run away with it all ;D ;D

The bank acc can be joint and require at least three signatures to make withdrawal Again this all depends on how many people are interested. So far it looks like 2010. Will people please post up here if interested Cheers Niall ;D ;D ;D

You can put my name down Niall and if there is a raft for partners you can put Eimear down for that aswell. Don't mind which year.
