Yellowstone- 24th of July
The first place we went was to see Old Faithful and yes she was faithful - it shot up in the sky, right on time. Sorry i didn't get a picture of it actually erupting. It was pretty neat, i was a little disappointed that we couldn't get closer to it.
Hallee on the bridge. Right now Hallee loves bridges and tunnels etc. Needless to say we had to stop here for a little while. Yellowstone is beautiful, it reminds me of Utah only a lot greener.
Hallee drinking lots of water that Ben was packing around for us. Ben & Hallee posing in front of one of the hundreds of geysers in Yellowstone.
The weather was nice 72-75 degrees the first day, perfect. The second day was a little hot 78-80 degrees.
Ben & Hallee in front of the diner we ate at. I couldn't resist and had to try the bison burger for dinner. Pretty good!
We saw a ton of waterfalls, the size of some of them were unbelievable
This was my favorite spot in yellowstone. It is called artist point. I imagine this is why the park is named yellowstone. It is beautiful! This picture didn't do it justice.
This was Hallee's favorite thing, swimming! There is a neat place where you can actually swim in the river. We didn't know about it, so we didn't have our swim suits, so Hallee went in the nude.
We did go on a hike in yellowstone to a waterfall. It was not one of the main attractions so it was not busy, which was nice we had the trail almost to ourselves. Hallee did pretty well for a 5 mile hike. Ben ended up carrying her 4 out of the 5 miles. Yea Ben got a major arm workout. The hike was his idea.
Talk about stopping traffic. It is funny how use to people the animals are. We were able to see lots of wild life, deer, bison, moose, elk, etc. the only thing we didn't see was a bear. Maybe next time.
Ok we did see bears just not alive ones.
I did get a sweet video of the bison crossing the road right in front of us. I couldn't get the sound to work. That was the best part of the video, sorry. And it was taken with my phone so it look blurry. Still pretty neat that we can be that close to wild life. These things were huge, and there were hundreds of them.
