Yellowstone July 2010 - Day 5 - Part 2 Old Faithful

After the upper geyser basin we headed to the middle geyser basin, which was a little bit shorter, but had some amazing springs.








Here is Saul with Andreas in the backpack, taking him up to see the springs. The middle geyser basin actually is stroller friendly, so we will have to remember that for next time so Saul can have a break from the backpack!
This was the Grand Prismatic Spring. I think this was one of the most amazing sights on our trip. It was huge and had every color so vibrantly, you almost couldn't believe your eyes.





Note the blue steam in these pictures -- the steam actually went from blue to red and was pretty amazing to see.

Our last stop was at Old Faithful. We arrived just in time to see it, so it was great planning on our part. It was pretty spectacular, and luckily there were a lot of places to rest, shop and eat to help us recover from our long day.
