On July 22nd, we drove from Yellowstone to Grand Teton (disclaimer: not to be pronounced in French) National Park. You would think that after a monument like Yellowstone, every other park would be a disappointment. But no... again, we were amazed by the beauty of this park!
We had only one day to spend in the park, so, we did the "drive-through" route. But we saw white pelicans, beautiful mountain lakes and again herds of buffalos...
The next day, we spent about 7 hours in the car to drive to Mount Rushmore in the Black Hills, South Dakota. For some reason, I had the feeling that our road trip wouldn't be complete if we hadn't seen Mount Rushmore. We visited the monument quickly the next morning... It is not as big as we thought but still, impressive.
We spent the rest of the day in Deadwood in the Black Hills, an old mining town of the 19th Century, most famous because of the murder of Wild Bill who's also burried there next to Calamity Jane (plus, now of course there's the famous HBO series "Deadwood").
