Despite my much-lampooned concerns about 30-minute lunch delays, we were able to eat our sandwiches all together in front of the lodge while we waited for the "volcano that shoots water" to erupt again.
Apparently, Old Faithful isn't as reliable as it once was, so we were caught out in the sun for quite a spell while we waited.
I wondered if kids would be that interested by something as simple as a geyser, but when the time came, it was much more impressive that I expected. Scott really enjoyed it, and was both frightened and excited at the prospect that there were volcanoes underfoot that created these phenomena.
After the show, we went for a very quick loop to see the other geysers and pools in the area. Katie probably enjoyed it more than Scott, since she got a bit of a lift from Grandma and Grandpa, while Scott mostly worried about whether he was out in the front of the pack acting as "leader."
We had planned to hit another sight before leaving the park, but everyone was a bit tired and we decided instead to just head towards Bear Lake.
