Seeing Grizzly Bear at Yellowstone

Yesterday we went back to Yellowstone National Park again to visit sites we've never been.  We drove to the northern part to see Mammoth Hot Spring which is very pretty to look at.  Daddy took us to visit the old fort at the hot spring and we all had lunch at a restaurant.  It was rainy mixed with hailstorm.  Anchalee spotted 3 antelopes running away from hailstorm up the hill.  We drove to the west to the highest part of the park but got stuck on traffic for awhile.  A car in front of the line just stopped right in the middle of the road causing back up traffic.  Couple tourists came out of their car and took pictures.  We couldn't understand what was they taking picture of.  Later on, we realized that there was a grizzly bear just off the road.  We only see his back and behind.  He was busy looking for thing to eat on the ground.  He didn't pay any attention to us.  Daddy has some pictures of him. 



We took a little hike to see Artist Pot hotspring and it was quite cold.  At one point we ran to see a water fall in the rain.  We got wet even in our raincoats.

On the way back home we ran into another traffic due to 2 buffalo walking on the road.  Then we waited 20 minutes because of the construction.

Artist Point, it looks much prettier in real life than this.

As you can see we have a lot of fun and got to see so many things in Yellowstone National Park.  Finally we'd got to see more than one buffalo which we experienced at Buffalo Range last week.  We saw elk from far away and daddy also spotted a coyote.  The geysers are very impressive but sent out smell of sulfur all over the place.  We got really excited to see the Old Faithful that shot up so high.  We had lunch at the cafeteria and it was pretty good.  We ended our day with stopping by at the playground near the hotel and had Chinese food for dinner.  It was yummy!
