Day 1--Welcome to Badlands National Park

I wasn't feeling well, so we had to leave a day later, but we arrived at Badlands National Park to some beautiful views and a great campsite.  The sites aren't private, which we usually prefer, but the views were amazing.  Watching the light change on the rocks was a great distractor from not feeling well. 

                                                                              The First Glimpse. 

                       I always have to get a picture of the sign.  The boys bear with me and slightly slow down the car.

 We quickly settled in to a campsite.  We were surprised at how many open sites there were, but there aren't showers and it was pretty cool yet and early in the season.

                                                                            Not a bad view!

                                              A little family togetherness and some planning. "When can I ride my bike?"
