Yellowstone!

Posted June 29th, 2006

Grand Prismatic, Yellowstone Hi there!

After moving out (see recipe on last post), I have been on the road, driving lots of hours, visiting beautiful places and relaxing a little bit. I have almost no time to blog, as there are many miles to drive in the huge USA. So far, I have been in

  • Lake Tahoe, where I swam in frozen water,
  • Oregon, including beautiful & trendy Portland. (tip: Go to the restaurant Balvo on 23rd st in the alphabetical district)
  • Washington State, and welcoming Seattle, as charming as always.
  • Idaho, where I just refueled (the state line in the license plates is Idaho, Famous Potatoes, how uninviting is that?)
  • Montana, where I slept and now
  • YELLOWSTONE! Amazing wild life (moose, elk, bisons, coyotes, wolfs, black and grizzly bear and more…) and incredible geothermal features like geysers, hot fountains and boiling lakes. The beautiful colors of the water, come from bacteria that thrive in different temperatures. Where water is extremely hot, color is intense blue, and then greenish, then yellow then reddish. Amazing. A must-see, indeed.

In the next month I will fly to other countries, where I will have some more opportunities for blogging. Surprisingly enough, there are very few internet cafes in the USA. If you carry a wifi laptop, you can connect everywhere. Without one, like me, it is almost impossible.

Therefore this blog will see little activity in the next two weeks, but I go south from here, a land full of internet cafes…

    Looks beautiful. I’ll be in Wyoming next weekend, but couldn’t work in Yellowstone. If you get a chance and haven’t done so already, check out Yosemite as well. I did a 5 day outback hike there 10 months ago and loved it.

    The photo’s really interesting!!! Although I agree with Angie that it looks a bit ET-ish for me.. which makes it all the more interesting! Enjoy your next destinations!! :)
