Day 2 Vacation-Yellowstone South Loop

On Day 2, we left Twin Falls really early so we could make it to Yellowstone as soon as possible. 


On the way, we stopped in Rexburg and had a quick visit at the bank with my friend Denys from Royal City. I hadn't seen her in forever! 

She lives only a few hours from Yellowstone so we were there in no time. We decided to do all the "south loop" stuff that day. It was the geothermal area. 



Our first stop was Old Faithful and it was faithful as usual. 


The rest of the pictures are just pictures of pools of hot liquids that will burn and maim you. Very pretty to see and very unique. Also usually very stinky. Nathan didn't notice of course.  We spent Day 1 doing all the "south" adventures which was mostly pools of color. 



We made it just in time for Old Faithful. 










We did have a favorite pool. It was this blue one called "sapphire pool." You could see how deep it was and the blue was a deeper blue the deeper it got. It was quite beautiful.

Orange colors.

We stayed until sunset



Jeremy's favorite thing of the day was the boiling waterfall. 


More pictures he took of a boiling waterfall. 

As we headed back up to West Yellowstone for the night, we got stuck in some traffic. There was ONE buffalo crossing and apparently it was a really big deal!
