Hi Vanya,
We can get to the canyon by car. Then we can park the car and take buses to travel around the canyon. Buses are very cheap and make a lot of stops on the way, so you can easily get off the bus, take pictures and then take another bus.
if you want to see the canyon at night, we can take a plane and fly above the canyon for an hour. It's quite expensive, but the sights are beautiful! Crossing the canyon needs time, we can walk down the canyon to the river and then up. Remember that the canyon is very deep and we'll have to climb two kilometers down and up. so we should wear walking shoed and we should also have hats and jacets to protect us from the sun. We should have a lot of drinking water with us, because it's very hot in the canyon. Food is not so important, there are a lot of cafes around, so we can easily find something to eat.
Write what you think about this plan.
Best wishes, Jenny.

London

CRUEL City, London, London,
Where, duped slaves of devils' creeds,
Men and women desperate, undone,
Dream such dreams, and do such deeds:
London, London, cruel city,
By day serpent, by night vampire —
God, in thy great pity, pity,
Give us light — though it be fire!

Лондон

Жестокий Город, London, Лондон,
Где, обманывают рабов дьяволом вероучения,
Где мужчины и женщины отчаянные, отменно,
Мечты как мечты, и делаются такие деяния:
Лондон, Лондон, жестокий город,
Днем змея, ночью вампир —
Бог, в своей Великой жалости, жалости,
Дайте нам свет — пусть он и будет огонь!
