This is the first of a few entries about our trip to Yellow Stone national park. We could do it all in one entry but that would require patience we don’t have and the readers would get bored and not finish the whole thing. So here goes:

    One of the first things we did was go and see old faithful. It so happens that we got there as it was blasting off. This is why the picture we have isn’t that close up. We can’t quite say how high it went, all we know is that it went pretty darn high.


    Another one of the interesting things we saw were these pools of colored water that smelled like rotten eggs(literally!) due to the sulfur. There was one in particular though, that we found more peculiar than the others. It was this huge hole in the ground full of blue water called the “Saphire Pool”, and it had this one area around the middle where all the ripples and waves just stopped. It was really wierd.


    The last point of interest for this entry is when we went fishing. 3 of us caught Cutthroat trout, which of course is the kind we couldn’t keep, and the other 2(Aaron and Matthew) caught nothing. We don’t know about Matthew, but later, when we got back to Washington, we went fishing again and Aaron was the only one to catch anything, and we got to keep it so we fried it and ate it. Yummy!

There will be another entry soon!
