When Carrie visited the Grand Canyon in the summer of 2001, she fell in love, twice.
First, she was instantly enamored with the vast vistas of copper-colored rocks and wide open blue skies that later bled into a burned orange sunset.
When the family arrived at the national park, Carrie's mother continued her efforts. She zoned in on a young guy who was sitting, alone, on the edge of a rock at Hopi Point, on the South Rim of the canyon. Kris was also visiting the Grand Canyon with his parents, as part of a post-graduation US road trip before the family returned to Denmark.
"Hi, my mom's making me do this," explained Carrie, awkwardly, as she sat down and peered out over Hopi Point."We just started talking," she recalls."And I don't think we got up for five hours."Carrie's mother took this photo of Carrie and Kris on the day they met in May 2001, at Hopi Point on the Grand Canyon.Kris and Carrie say they talked about"everything" that day. They realized they shared a love of fantasy novels.
This was more because she liked the view, suggests Carrie, than because she figured Kris would be an important figure in her daughter's life. "As far as I know, we've had this massive connection. And then one day, all of a sudden, I see this other girl's name plastered all over his social media."
