Am nächsten Tag unternimmt Familie Griswold eine Rafting Tour auf dem Colorado River im Grand Canyon. Kurz bevor es losgeht, löst die Freundin ihres Guides Chad die Verlobung auf, weswegen sich Chad entschließt, Selbstmord zu begehen. Kurz vor einem Wasserfall springen die Griswolds vom Schlauchboot und können sich um ihr Leben schwimmend retten, während Chad mitsamt dem Raft in den Tod stürzt.

For those familiar with the original (it's been too long since I last saw it), there are a few throwbacks, most of which surely can be read here. They are nice and as "tasteful" as they can be expected to be in a movie, that really takes no prisoners. And I only watched the version that was shown in cinemas. I can only imagine where they probably will go in an extended version (that's surely happening, right? If not at least many deleted scenes and outtakes, with more "fun" - for those who liked it). Also many jokes throughout the credits, that will either delight you or annoy you more - depending on how you liked the movie
