Bear Spotting and Other Activities on Skyline Drive.

Due to lack of internet I was unable to blog last night so I have included a double bill tonight.
Yesterday morning started with a refreshing swim before breakfast in the hotel pool.


We then had our first visit to an American supermarket. We were impressed by some of the fruit which we are not used to seeing in such quantity.


There was also some serious preparations for July 4th.



This included a good number of flags.


We then set off onto the Skyline Drive through the Sherandoah National Park. This is a 100 mile drive with a speed limit of 35 miles an hour. There are breathtaking views all along the route.






The day included a picnic.


And a walk to a waterfall.


There was quite a climb back to the car. Several rests were needed!


We were on the lookout for wildlife all day.




And finally the highlight of the day was a bear. Photos courtesy of Emma.
