We woke up the morning of day five in northern Utah. The snow-capped mountains behind the hotel were a sign of things to come. We drove north into Idaho. We were in a beautiful valley with green fields on both sides of the road. We crossed into Montana as we neared our hotel in West Yellowstone. We checked in to the hotel and drove into Yellowstone National Park. Kirsten's eagle eyes spotted our first animal (the lonely buffalo eating by the river side pictured above). We had no idea at that time that we would see buffalo everywhere in the park-in fields, in the woods, around the geysers, and even on the roads! We saw some geysers that night. The weather was overcast with flurries, which made for a perfect backdrop to all the scenery. Kirsten and I enjoyed the beauty of creation and the animals, but the kids found the pool at the hotel the most fun.
