Friday,June 24. We spent the day in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, doing very touristy things. We took a ski lift up to and down from the top of a mountain for a very scenic view of Jackson and the Tetons. Next the boys tried their hand at Alpine sliding! Austin won both races! We had a very good lunch at 43 North (meaning latitude). After some time at the hotel, we went white-water rafting with Lewis and Clark Expeditions. We met there at 4 p.m. and donned our wet suits before boarding the bus that would take us to the rafts on the Snake River. We rafted for about 1 1/2 hours through rapids called Lunch Counter and the Big Kahuna. David took a front position, Davis was behind him, and Austin and I shared a spot to the back. It was freezing water (melted snow) and we were very cold, especially our feet which stayed in the bottom of water-filled raft! Afterwards, we ate steak and salmon beside the river. We had a great time and want to try a longer trip next time!
