I awoke around 7:30 today, and B woke up at around 8. This was surprisingly late, because we usually leave for our sightseeing stuff around 7. But when B went out to Mommy and Daddy, he returned with the iPads. Turns out we can have iPads for a little while.
So much for betting on a “little while”. We got dressed at 1 PM. (What the…). My request for visiting the Old Faithful geyser has been approved. It took a while to get there, but it was worth it.
At the site of Old Faithful, we steered around tourist crowds, got ice cream, and sat down to see Old Faithful erupt. The eruption was amazing. Boiling water shot up to 100 feet in the air.
Water paraded out of the geyser, blasting up simultaneously. The crowds watching it had stretched far to each side. Water kept coming, for about ten minutes. The view was definitely worth it.
After the eruption, the time was 5 PM mountain time. We went to an outdoor restaurant and had dinner. We had foot-long hot hot dogs and piles of fries. Sooner or later we went back to the cabin and went to bed.
