Day 3, Memorial Day Weekend

So as soon as we woke up, we broke camp and headed to church. I was glad we had driven past the temple the day before because there was a church right next to it. After church as we were driving our last time across the bridge, we stopped and videoed the jumpers. They are insane, though Ayslind said that she didn't think it would be that big of a deal as long as she had a parachute. Ah youth and their innocence, right? Well then we headed on our drive to Craters of the Moon National park. It really did feel like a different planet, or rather moon. It is crazy to think that a volcanoe is so close to home, I know there are some in Utah, but this one was HUGE. We explored some of the caves and walked a few of the trails. Cyana didn't like being in the cave so much, to be hones neither did I. It might be attributed to the fact we were walking in pitch black with 6 inches to a foot of solid ice beneath our feet and jagged sharp volcanic rock all around. I was nervous about falling. The Indian tunnel was neat and very, very large. The pictures don't seem to give it the justice that it deserves. All in all the kids seemed to have fun, but they kept asking when we would get to Yellowstone.

We made it to Madison campground just in time to set up camp, eat, and send Brent and the girls to a show on wolves and ravens. Note to self: DO NOT BUY FIREWOOD IN THE PARK! IT IS VERY VERY EXPENSIVE!
