Our luck continues to hold, waking to another sunny morning and a chance to Skype Jenny back home....who (along with Dave!) we miss, surprisingly! Breakfast was an interesting experience, as a coach-full of Italian tourists were getting to grips with buffet breakfast "American-Style". Apparently, it requires eight people to make a slice of toast and rather than insert one slice per toasting unit, its better to insert two and when it 'pops', shuffle the slices and re-insert into the toaster!! Anyway, packed and loaded we left Driggs and drove down to Jackson, before steering for the South entrance of Yellowstone. The journey took us through the fabulous scenery of the Grand Tetons Park and then into glorious Yellowstone......now this is a park!!
Mile-after-mile of awesome vistas....trees, wild-life, water (still and moving!)...it has it all!. Each turn brings on another epic setting. We decided to leave Geyser Valley for tomorrow and contained today's viewing to lakes, rivers and cascading falls.....well, best not to overdo things on the first day!!
At one point we crawled along in a line of traffic preceded by a huge bison that was taking a stroll!
One of the highlights of our route was Cascade Falls, which is truly majestic.
And of course, at the Visitor Centre we met and chatted with a charming Chinese couple who are currently working and studying in Chicago for twelve months.....we forged a common bond through a shared love of travel, Manchester United, and other cultures.
As we drove around today, we caught a glimpse of a several classic hot-rods driving in convoys to yet ....well, that put me in mind of this band.........
