Thursday, Aug. 19, 2010Left for Yellowstone National Park at 10:30 am. Today we decided to go to the lower loop of Yellowstone. The lower loop is where you'll see the Old Faithful geyser. Stopped by at KFC and bought an 8 piece chicken and brought it with us to the park for our lunch. Had a little picnic while w
e were there. Went to the Geysers after lunch and watch the old faithful erupt Really amazing,awesome,faithful and very much on time. The interval between eruptions is about 93 minutes though they said it may vary 30 mi
nutes in either direction. We hiked around the Old Faithful geyser. The area is surrounded with geyser basins and they are all connected to the Old
Faithful area by paved trails and it's fairly level and distances are short. Unfortunately we didn't get to see the whole area 'coz it started raining. The rain didn't last very long, wasn't hard enough to get us soaked. Stayed at the park for a while and watched more eruptions. We left around 4:30 pm and on our way home we stopped at Midway Geyser Basin. The major attraction here is the Excelsoir Geyser which is the 3rd largest geyser in the world and once the park's most powerful geyser. It was a great day at Yellowstone. Weather was cloudy,little rainy and a little cool. Got to our RV around 7:00 pm.
