Tomorrow we go to the Grand Canyon, south rim. :]

I tend to forget a lot of things, so here's another thing from yesterday. I was at that Wild Animal Park observing the birds in the aviary. There were two birds (Amazons, I believe. :P) that acted so nice and cozy that I was tempted to call them the "Roslin and Adama birds". I took a lot of photos of them; I'll picspam later.

Today we went to the Painted Desert, home to the Petrified Forest. It was... petrified. And ancient. They didn't allow us to take any petrified wood from the park, and my brothers and cousins threw hissy fits at that. We also went to Meteor Crater and some other pretty places whose names I totally forgot. :P Airlock me.

One of them was the ruins of a Hopi settlement, though. A few miles from that is this tall plateau with a wall. It looked creepily like the mountaintop where Adama built the cabin in Daybreak. I wanted to take pictures, but we were moving too fast. :[

Meteor Crater was windy. My hair got all messed up in the photos. As the name might suggest, the crater was created by a meteor. The Meteor Crater museum played a ten-minute movie about the place and later in the gift shop I bought something for Mrs. F...fossilized fish. ;P

After that we went to see petrified wood. Whee.

We had dinner at Denny's. The waitress seriously screwed up all of our orders. It was eventful. My bro Kenny and my cousin Ashley were cutting their french fries up and sprinkling salt on their ketchup. No comment.

I listened to just about every song on iRoslin on the drives in between the sites. I think I might make a Bella/Edward fanmix, because I'm just like that. :P And I might continue some BSG fanfic, but I barely have time cos Mom and Dad don't allow me to write or read in the car. XP

No, the rocks just look painted. I think it has something to do with sedimentary rocks and geology, but I wasn't paying attention. :P
