September 2009 Vacation to Glacier National Park, Montana

I've been meaning to post this for a while. During our trip to the States last September, we took the fifth wheel with Harmony's parents up to Glacier National Park for a few nights of camping and exploring. The landscape we encountered was amazing.

Our campsite near Salmon, Idaho.

The highlight of the trip was Glacier National Park. As you can see, the landscape was stunning!



We saw some mountain goats as we were hiking along a trail.

Jack had fun throwing rocks into the lake with Grandpa


This lake was by another campsite in Montana near Glacier National Park.

Aunt Susan's Visit

Aunt Susan, Uncle Dick, Sarah, and Elisabeth came up from their family vacation to Switzerland for a brief visit this week. We toured Burg Frankenstein and Schloss Auerbach, both of which are just outside of Darmstadt. Thank you for visiting!
