I know we'll want to raft one day...sounds like we'll avoid Flagstaff since the North Rim is where we should see the Canyon from.

I must warn you though, if you don't know the differences between the South/North, you should research both to see which you prefer. You may enjoy stuff I do not and prefer the south. It's much more touristy on the south. North has more trees/brush. It's harder to see the river on the north as well. North could save you some travel time though in getting to Zion and such.
