Old Faithful

Another area we had to go to while in Yellowstone was Old Faithful.  This geyser is the world's most famous geyser and was named for it's consistency.  It erupts between 18-21 times a day.

We learned a lot of great information from the museum at the Visitor's Center.  They have wonderful displays and an excellent kids area.

While there, we were lucky enough to see the Beehive Geyser go off.  This geyser erupts only once every 24-36 hours and boy was it a site.  The sound of the geyser was awesome and you could hear the force of the 80+ feet of water.  It was amazing! I wish we were closer but it was still cool.  (even cooler than Old Faithful!)

There are many hikes around the area, some shorter and easier, some longer and more difficult.  We walked a quick .5 mile look to see some other areas.  If the boys were older and able, we would have spent more time hiking around.  Next time!

Enjoying every moment.
