Travel Log 3: A walk in the park.

Today, on our third day of travel, we got off to a slow start. Cyrano was not feeling too well so he was taken to the car doctor. He was right as rain by 10ish! We got on the road at about 11. Today we were able to drive through some glorious national parks in the land of leaves! They were very green and mountain filled. While traveling on the path we were blessed to behold more wild life. This time the life was actually wild. We got to see a real live black bear, no tags mind you, purely wild! This was a huge desire for Spooner while on this trek. We also saw two wolfs! I was so happy by this because I'd never seen a wild wolf. Other animals: potguts, deer, white tailed deer, dog..., mountain goats, hawks and crows. Yeah! We were pretty much stoked!!!
Facts For the day:
Lunch Stop: McDonalds. They had leaves and french on all the wrapping!! Way cool!
Fun stop: Big rock randomly in the middle of flat lands. Pretty neat Indian story to go with it. This guy sat on a rock. He gave the rock his coat because the rock was poor. One day it was cool and the guy wanted his coat back. The rock refused and the guy was mad so he just took it. He was walking off when he heard something. He turned around and the rock was chasing him. The guy started running. His animal friends tried helping him but they got smashed. Then his bat friends helped him. Yes bats. One bat hit the rock dead center with its face and cracked the rock in half. That is why the rock was in the middle of no where. Very unbelievable story but pretty cool.
Fun Activity of the day: Standing out the sun roof taking pictures while the car was moving.
Pictures to come later!!
