Yellowstone: Last Day


Once Jamie had been awarded her badge, it was Alex’s turn to be a Young Scientist today. The observations for his task also centered around the hot spring basin at Old Faithful, so off we trotted again. While we had lunch in the fantastic Lodge, the heavens opened and dropped tonnes of white fluffy stuff and we were forced to stay inside (in front of a log fire)till it all went away. So we spent a little time gift shopping. When the weather lifted, Alex finished his work – he thinks geysers are not alive and can provide evidence – was awarded his badge and we celebrated by finishing our time in Yellowstone in the enormous gift shop buying souvenirs of our incredible time here.
