Day 2 tooks us on a day tour of the lower basin of the park...left @ 9:30 and returned @ 5pm (this is like work) It was an informative tour of the Geisers of the park as well as other items of interest....we were not on the bus all day, we drive 15-30 minutes and get off for up to 30 minutes with a "walk and guided learn"...lunch stop was with "Old Faithful" for about hour and 1/2.
The things in this park and it's diversity of items in one area is absolutely amazing...and weird at the same time...
Animals: more Bison (You really kind of get tired of these guys a fter a while as everyone stops for one bison no matter how far away they are....you know like a dot on ht horizon...the good place for bison is Lamar & Hayden Valley when the rut has begun, and it was getting underway..Lamar was our favorite), Eagle catching a fish, Grizzley Bear, Prong Horn (These animals are pretty much everywhere as well).
We returned, had dinner at the Yellowstone Lodge (down the road from the hotel)...we do not recommend the eating accomodations here), then returnes to the great room overlooking the Yellowstone Lake and listened to a great string quartet for about an hour and half before heading to bed.
