Road Trip - Day 2 (Yellowstone)

Today we made a whirlwind trip through Yellowstone. It wasn't exactly fast - we had forgotten how much driving is actually involved in a trip to Yellowstone - but we knew what we wanted to see since we had both been there before on a family vacation with my parents a few years ago. We entertained ourselves during the downtime/drivetime with some audiobooks and the newfound art of taking photos from the car. Mainly of fatty bison and elk. Gotta love 'em!

We had also forgotten how much walking was involved - while we were climbing up stairs at Mammoth Hot Springs, our first stop, we remembered that my dad had, in fact, lost 10 or so pounds on said family vacation. As a consequence, we forgot to put on ample sunscreen - to those of you who told us to bring heavy coats because Yellowstone was going to be freezing: It wasn't! We got sunburns! ;)
