Yellowstone

















Bear World












Our first stop on our way to yellow stone was to Bear World. We drove through the outside part of the park to look at different animals and saw a lot of bears. Before we headed inside I wanted to take a picture of the girls in front of the bear. Madison took a couple of timid steps towards the bear, stopped and asked "is it real?" and then took a few more steps and asked again. After a lot of reassurance I managed to get her to sit in front so I could get a picture. Inside the park we saw baby bears, fed the fish, and went to the petting zoo. Inside the zoo the girls got to pet deer, pigs, elk and goats. However the deer decided that they wanted to pet back and both girls got marked up by a hoof. There were also a few rides that we got to go on. Its not often that you go to an amusement park and have the rides all to yourself. The best part is we didn't have to wait in line and now I don't feel obligated to take them somewhere like lagoon :) Before we left we went through the outside bear park and caught the feeding of the bears. We got to see many bears up close and personal. Way to up close and personal! We had a few rub up against the van and sniff at the back were we had our food packed.
