Travel Day... And We Made It... And It's SNOWING!!!

Dear Parents, Teachers, Friends, etc...
We made it! All is well. We had a really good trip up and we are thankful and praising the Lord for protecting us. Thanks for your prayers on our behalf! Right now, Miss Henry and I (Miss Briganti) are sitting in the Curry Village lounge updating the blog by the fire and watching a weird little striped-tail critter scurry across the ceiling. This is our 4th wildlife for the day. We saw deer, coyote, a raccoon under our tent, and this furry little beast so far. He looks like a lemur.

We stopped at In'N'Out for sustenance... our drive took us from 9:30-6:00 with only a couple pit stops.

















Getting ready to leave/ packing the van... anticipation is eating us ALIVE.... RAWR...


After alllll the candy was consumed, we had some fun with a photo shoot.







It was a LOT snowier than we anticipated and we had to buy chains on the way up-- although we didn't actually end up using them. The above pictures are some of the sights from the road- cars buried in snow, a snowplow making us laugh as it blasted snow off the road, the view from the tunnel and the magnificent Bridal Veil Falls.

We'll post some more pictures tomorrow. Connor took a bunch of hilarious "Man Vs. Wild" style videos of his experience so far...

We're off to go find the bathrooms, hope the raccoon didn't find a way to sneak into our tent, and SLEEP.

Our tents are heated--- and they are SO NICE!!!

Good night.
