going with you! Let's go back to the hotel "- I suggested. We directly caught a taxi and returned to
the place where we stayed.
In the silence, we packed up and checked out the next flight to London. Within four hours we
landed at Heathrow and went straight to Kevin's house to support his mother. And, despite the
fact that our vacation was ruined, I know that I would have done the same thing no matter how
many times I could choose from. As a result of this unfortunate event, our friendship bond is
stronger.

Wildlife Angels
It was in 2003 that I had 2 week break from my photography school. Therefore, I decided
to drive up to Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks to camp and photograph wildlife and
landscapes of that area. I chose the site because of my friend’s recommendation. On this trip, I
wanted to concentrate on wolves and two animals I'd never seen before; badgers and river otters.
Due to the observation conducted in the Lamar Valley, I knew how to get the best chance to see
the animals. I just had to look for groups of people with spotting scopes.
The people with the scopes were really friendly though, that’s why I was able to see a few
pups playing outside of their den! When I was watching them for a far, one guy told me to come
over and pointed his scope across the valley. I looked through, and saw a badger! I couldn't believe
it! I told them that I was completing my project on wildlife photography, hence they kindly offered
me an assistance. It was definitely unexpected. I spent 3 entire days hanging out there while they
were photographing the otters. That trip could not have gone
better. When I returned to my school, I submitted my project
to my lecturer. He was telling me how impressive my project
was. Accordingly, I got a straight A. but of course, the reason
why I was able to submit such excellent project is the
incredible kindness of those men I met at Lamar Valley.
