Sunday 12.7. (Yellowstone)

In the morning we set for the southern part of the "eight", mainly geisers, hot springs and coloured volcanic ponds. We saw several plateaux with geysers; a man could spent here whole week and still he would not see everything. Touristic trails almost always lead through the hot steam, causing a dizziness. Today, we meet a lot of people in the park -- it is sunday. Around 3 pm, we got to the most famous geyser in the park, Old Faithful. It is not the tallest one but it explodes fairly regularly (in comparison to the several miles distant, the tallest geyser in the world, Steamboat, which can reach 120 meters but the explosions happen from several days to decades). Moreover, we werte lucky to get see the geysir just few minutes after we arrived to the place. We were pretty tired from both days in Yellowstone already (many sights, many views), and so we stopped afterwards only in the last geyser area besides the lake, and registered to the campsite. It is possible to swim in the lake but the water is extremely cold and so I only dipped in my legs -- immediatelly, the storm clouds appeared. Yesterday, a grizzly bear visited the camp so we will se, whose dinner will allure him tonight.
