On the morning of Day Three, we loaded up onto the coaches (also knows as tour buses) and headed to Bearizona where we saw a lot of wildlife - some by walking, others by driving! It was a neat stop on the way to the Grand Canyon. It was basically a small zoo/sanctuary/wildlife park. :)
We stopped to feed the otters some fish - gross.
Ben checking on the elk!
So these jaguars are probably not native to Arizona...but they were fascinating to see. What huge, powerful creatures!
a porcupine: )
A bear cub, resting with his foot against a tree...apparently bears do this in case they need to make a quick getaway!
a trained skunk named Flower
and a python...can't remember its name
a javalina pig
We killed some time in Williams, AZ - a tiny town that resides along Route 66.

Lots of clouds and rain!
(It was chilly!)
Back at our hotel, the Maswik Lodge, we spied on some deer.
This mama and her two babies...so sweet. She wanted nothing to do with them at this point, though.
