Day 62

Wednesday, July 31

Made it to Yellowstone today.  Our first stop was the Boiling River where we went swimming.  Awesome!  The water is so hot where it comes out of the ground, and the river water is so cold!  What a contrast.

Next stop - Mammoth Hot Springs.  We hiked all around the hot springs.  Really amazing.  A little smelly...  but not too bad.

Then we drove out to Lamar Valley.  We were skeptical.  The visitor's center staff had said that this was the place to go to see wildlife.  We didn't see anything and didn't see anything and then WHAM! Boy did we see things!  There was this HUGE herd of buffalo (bison) and they were everywhere!  Way cool!

And finally, on our way back to the trailer, we saw a little bear.  He was really cute.

Tomorrow we move the trailer into a campground right in Yellowstone and we'll go see Old Faithful.
