Day 2 At Yellowstone!

Team woke up this morning around 7:00a.m. Ate breakfast burritos and hit the road… we went to see the “Old Faithful Yellowstone Geisers” bigger than we thought. Yellowstone is made up of a “figure 8” or “2 circles” (so it looks on the map). Today we did the “lower half” of the bottom circle which brings you over to “Old Faithful”. When you enter the “Old Faithful” section of the park – it is a giant parking lot and the entrance is set up so you see “Old Faithful” first. We spent the entire day 5-6 hours here walking around looking at the different geisers / sulfer ponds… the section of the park is set up on miles of “boardwalks” and asphalt trails – which guide you through and over the different areas of the park. The geisers go off at different times throughout the day. Old Faithful goes off about once an hour – others vary going off every 2 hours, 3 hours, 5 hours or so. Old Faithful was the largest we saw.
This evening we ate hamburgers, hotdogs, baked beans and such… after dinner we went out (driving) and looked for some wildlife. We saw tons of Buffalo, Elk and Deer. Linda said she saw some Flamingos in the river as well as questioned if there were hippos in the water!
