Craters of the Moon

Today we headed to an incredible place - the Craters of the Moon National Park. In the middle of nowhere, this amazing landscape appears - it was a volcanically active area as little as 2,000 years ago. Here some of the astronauts did their geology training for their time on the moon.

After having travelled from California into Nevada (Reno) and Idaho (Twin Falls), we now cross into Montana. We stayed for 2 nights at a place called West Yellowstone - a charming little town (but freezing in the mornings that we were there - we got up the first morning to go for a walk and it was only 2 degrees C! - what were we thinking!!!!)
