Day 3: Billings, Montana→Glacier National Park, Montana

The drive from Billings, Montana to Glacier National Park was beautiful. You never have to wonder why they call it “Big Sky Country” – the mountains and blue skies were beyond stunning. We arrived to find plenty of people parked off to the side waiting for the magic time of day when they don’t have to have a reservation ticket for Going-To-The-Sun-Road. Once in the park, we parked at the St. Mary Visitor Center and walked a short walk to the Glacier National Park sign. Did you really see the park if you don’t take a picture with the sign? We drove to our lodging at Rising Sun Motor Inn and Cabins and chatted with the front desk gal from Alabama (love that accent Jen-nay). We drove to our cute tiny cabin in the woods 18-B. Our cabin was the last in a line of tiny cabins and it butted up right to the woods. The cabin itself was amazing and clean and came with a box fan due to there being no air conditioning. We brought our own box fan too and were glad we did because it got pretty hot at night. There was a writing desk, a toilet, shower, sink, and a coffee maker. Our neighbor the next cabin over was this nice lady from Minnesota. Midwest gang strong. We heard there was some great food outside of the park and since we were only 10 minutes from the east entrance we headed that way and dined at The Two Sisters Café. I got a juicy burger with fries while Megan got a Banh Mi sandwich. We ended the night by sharing a huckleberry shake and then drove back to our cabin in the park.
