We got up and went downstairs to get our sack breakfast, which was not very impressive. It was a breakfast bar and a bottle of water.
After saying our "Good-byes" to Tony and Miranda, we headed out. It was another beautiful day.
When we arrived at North Platte, NE we took a nice long break at Cody Park. Before going to the park we picked up some Kentucky Fried Chicken. We found a nice picnic table and had lunch.
After the kids were done eating they played on the playground right behind us.
Then we walked over to see if the buffalo were in their pen, but we did not see any, so we headed for the train exhibit. :) On the way over to the train I took this great picture.
The train exhibit was really nice.
After visiting the train exhibit we drove further around and found some of the animals that were here. :) We saw deer, one very large elk and many geese.
The elk was out on the island, so is was a little harder to get a good picture of him. That and he was headed for the water.
Next we headed for the carnival rides. :) The first ride they went on was the merry-go-round, which was an old wood merry-go-round.
Next Ami wanted to go on this ride, but the boys did not want to ride it. There was another little girl that also wanted to ride, but did not want go by herself, so the 2 of them rode it together.
In the meantime, the boys rode on the swing.
Once Ami's ride was over she saw the boys riding on the swing and wanted to ride it too, but the boys did not want to ride it again, so Grandma went with her. :)
Once the ride was over Grandma was READY to get OFF. :)
In the meantime, the boys rode on this ride.
I was real glad when Ami said she did not want to ride this one. :) The boys did not want to ride it again either. They still had enough tickets left for one more ride, so they all agreed to go back to the merry-go-round.
It was time to get back on the road, so we headed back to the car. As we were headed out of the park ,we saw the burros and peacocks! Ami insisted we stop. :) We got some feed to feed them with, which they all seemed to enjoy.
I think Ami was most excited about the peacocks. :)
Before we left the park, I took a quick picture of the sign.
This is a very nice park. If you ever find yourself passing by North Platte, NE, this is worth the stop.
The sunset was beautiful!
We finally made it to Cheyenne, WY. We spent the night at the Little America Hotel and Resort. It was very nice.
It was another wonderful day!
