Our visit to Yellowstone National Park

Well it was a bitter sweet trip. We were so excited to go and camp. We were going to get to see some people from travis' mission. Well when we drove the hour and a half up there i started feeling extremely sick. Within 5 minutes of parking i threw up. There were a million and ten misquotes out so the men hurried to put the tents up and we hurried back into the car. But then our friends couldn't see us so we went out to dinner just the four of us. I got a sprite to calm my stomach. Little help that did because i threw it up too. and i said "there goes 2 dollars" So we ended up just going straight to bed because of all the bugs. But we weren't prepared and the night was hard. We were freezing and we didn't have pillows. So it was pretty much a sleepless night. Followed by more barfing. 

So in the morning we got up to go see yellowstone. i still felt like crap but we went anyways. We ended up seeing geysers and old faithful. We saw this cool hot water pool where the tour guide said mice will go to the edge to warm up but get to close and fall in and burn and die. it was crazy hot and smelled like egg salad sandwiches.

Here is old faithful we waited an hour to see it go off so luckily it was worth it. I am not very patient when i don't feel good so i was really annoyed but it did its shooting thing and i was impressed.


 Lucky for Travis i wasn't feeling that good so he didn't have to be in a million pictures. But there will always be a next time. 

On the way home i was feeling a lot better and we ate at this really good pizza place and went into this really cool rock store that next time i am going to get some cool rocks!! (if you know this side of me you can only imagine how excited i was in that store. Like a kid in a candy store.) and then we came home to sleep in our comfy beds. It was a short but fun weekend. Lets just hope next time we go i am not so sick.
