Idaho Falls

My 3 little Bears

 Bear World up in Idaho Falls was a really great surprise.  There was just enough stuff that you felt like you got a full experience, but not enough to make it overwhelming.  The first thing we did was drive through the bear part of the exhibit.  It was fun seeing such large animals up close and personal, I only wish we would have had a safari car with cages for windows so we could have been even closer.  Then we walked through their gift shop where my mom and I bough fudge:)  Outside there were small amusement rides (perfect for Mason and Zach who are afraid of everything lately.)  My favorite part of the whole experience was the petting zoo area ... which ironically I don't have any pictures for:)  We were able to pet and feed a lot of different animals.  My kids favorite though was the baby deer.  They would pick grass and let the deer lick it out of their hands.  Mason was the bravest at first, but the other two caught on quick.  We stayed at an older Hotel across from the falls, but despite being old it was really nice and we had the really large pool all to ourselves, which was awesome!!   I had never been to Idaho Falls, but have decided that it would be a place I could live.  I loved it!!
