Bear World

One thing that we missed while in Texas was quick trips to Idaho and to Yellowstone. This past weekend we were able to take the kids to visit my family. We decided to take them to Yellowstone Bear World (just outside of Rexburg). We have been to Yellowstone more times than we can count and have never seen a bear, so it was exciting to see bears (even if they were in a gated park and we were in a van driving). We followed the feeding truck so the bears were walking all around the van. Tatum thought it was funny when a bear walked right next to the van and to see the bears sleeping on the side of the road. But as cool as the bears were, the rides and the petting zoo were the best part of the park (according to the kids). Other than the down pours that kept coming we had a great time.

had a crowd watching them on the ride. They did not
enjoy it as much as the kids.
