Day 7 - September 21st

Tuesday afternoon we arrived at Crater Lake National Park. 
The bright blue water in the lake is from rain and melted snow. 
The crater was formed by a volcano that had a lava pit under it. When it erupted the volcano collapsed where the lave used to be. 


It was so cold there that we watched the sunset and went right to sleep. When we woke up the moisture on our  was actually frozen.. brrr

When we were leaving on Wednesday morning we saw a lot of national park vechiles and media people around. We found out that sometime last week a car fell off a cliff and into the lake. Everyone was out of the car except a dog who jumped out and was fine. The news was there because they were planning on taking the car out of the lake that morning.
