Grand Teton national park

This morning we left Yellowstone National Park pretty early. It seemed to be getting a bit better and sunnier, but it was still a mere 47 degrees! We drove to the South in direction of Jackson, a small but friendly little cowboy town..To get there we drove through Grand Teton National Park, a wonderful place with alpine mountains and lots of lakes around them... It started to get a bit warmer as well, temperatures rose to a good 60 degrees. We drove up to Signal Mountain from where we had an amazing view of the whole valley... We even decided on an outing to the Bridger-Teton wilderness.. We continued further south and passed the lovely Jenny Lake. After resting a bit there, we continued to our hotel, The Point Inn.
And we had a lovely dinner at The Garage. We didn't eat Bison this time, but Elk! We took a stroll through town because all the shops are open here till 10 pm. We bought some T-shirts. Apparently in a lot of shops, gas stations there are East-European students working through some work exchange program. People from Russia, Ukraine, Rumania and Moldavia. They work so they can travel the country a bit as well...
