Day 4 and finally we were able to get some sight-seeing done! We spent most of the morning trying to figure out a problem with the 5th wheel. There's something wrong with the front landing things, and the warranty deal we have that's supposed to be so great to get repairs while out on the road has ended up being a total waste. I guess we shouldn't be surprised, they'll tell you anything to get you to buy something but try to use it and it's a different story! We don't have phone reception here at the campground, so we drove to town to make some phone calls. And to stock up.
McDonalds are few and far between out here!
We went to the Royal Gorge this afternoon, and there's just no describing how huge it is. There's a suspension bridge built to walk across, and with the wind blowing you could feel it moving (was a little scary!) They also have a tram car you can ride to the bottom, and walk along side the Arkansas River.
They also had a wildlife park across the bridge with bison, elk and mountain goats.
This little chipmunk was so cute I had to get a picture. He was hanging around the snack bar and would dart around grabbing up food and running off with it.
It was a fun day wandering around the Royal Gorge and seeing everything they had there. We didn't go on the tram cars that take you across the gorge, with the way the wind was blowing it would have just been too much for us old folks! lol We walked probably 50 miles, and everything was uphill so we definately got in our exercise today. Hopefully we'll be able to move tomorrow!
Oh, I forgot about the trouble Larry got into.... don't ask! We were just lucky I had enough cash for bail!
