0 comments Today was suppose to be White Water Rafting day. A trip that cost us $46 each. The paper given to us wrote 6.30am at the rec hall. And so we were there around 6.30 and saw the van drove away without us. With no phone contact what so ever, it was a mission impossible to get them to turn around.
We went back to the dining room and got Michaela to lend us her truck so we could try our luck at catching the van when it goes to Canyon Village to pick the rest up. On the way back to the dorms however, we met Alex and Christine who were heading for a hike at Canyon area and they offered to give us a ride. His car unfortunately started breaking down halfway and we got off and tried to hitchhike the rest of the way. 15min with no luck, it was impossible for us to catch the van and so we turned back and tried to hitch a ride back to lake. Which was also a fruitless effort. No car stopped to pick us up at all. it took us an hour and a half to get back to our dorms finally and it was only because we saw a family sight see-ing at a stop off and wanted to ask for our position and distance to lake. The taiwanese family then very kindly offered to give us a ride back to our dorms.

To be continued...

So we came back to our dorms finally and slept... all the way till 12. 30pm and went for lunch. While eating, we met Nina, a Taiwanese SA and she was also having a bad day. Problems with cultural shock and habits of the Americans we Asians might fine irresponsible. But hey, it's normal to them so we just have to adapt.
Later, we went to Michaela's room to tll her all about our morning and lettie out of the blue just asked if she could take her truck our and go to canyon since Nina has never been around the park yet. Michaela agreed!
Thus, we proceeded to the Canyon! On the way we also stopped over at Mud Volcano area. A place so near our lake hotel but lettie and i have yet to visit! haha.. And then it was a relaxing walk/hike at artist point. Kristen, who too joined us in our little outing saw a short hike of 3 miles to ribbon lake and suggested we do that. It was a pretty walk along the canyon area but Ribbon lake itself was unfortunately disappointing. Lilypad lake was a pretty cute little thing though and still worth the hike.
Dinner was at Canyon's Dining room and this time we ordered starters as full meals instead BBQ pork shanks and Chilli Fries! Delicious...

I also had my first taste of a SMORE! although it's not the authentic one since it was made in a microwave instead of being roasted over a fire. BUT, heavenly in any case. ((:

p.s. A Smore = a graham cracker sandwich with melted marshmallow and chocolate in the middle. Yummy!
