Last night the coyotes were yipping and howling. But bears... no sign of them. They must be on holiday! And the monster was still in Yellowstone. Yes, I could open my eye maybe 3 mm this morning. Wait till you see the pictures. It's as if Sofie gave me a black eye.
I was excited today: Bison day. A ride through Hayden Valley in Yellowstone is almost the same as a 100% chance of seeing Bison... real close up. This year they seemed to be scattered all around the place instead of staying in a herd. Those 1 ton animals look scary when you are on your bicycle and they are sometimes only 5 meter away. Round every bend we thought a bison was standing there. Luckily not one thought we were good meat - I did have bison meatballs teh day before for dinner!
We walked around Mud vulcano and the smell was so disgusting - rotten eggs!
From Fishing Bridge on we cycled along Yellowstone Lake... most of the time. This is not really my favourite part of the ride. But at West Thumb we could walk around crystal blue basins again.
At Grant Village we ate at the lake house while a thunderstorm blew over. The mashed potatoes tasted so awesome that we had some for desert. It was another great day in the park.
