Story

Thursday, July 11 - We left for Yellowstone at about 7:30. We stopped at Bear World on the way and met up with everyone else. Bear World was a lot of fun and everyone enjoyed it, especially all the bears sleeping in the metal tunnels. The baby bears that were running around their cage were a ton of fun to watch because they kept falling off the logs as they were chasing each other.
