After visiting Jackson, Wyoming the bus headed north back through Yellowstone N.P. to our motel. On the way we stopped to see the geyser, "Old Faithful". We had to wait some time before the next eruption so we had a look inside the Old Faithful Inn.It was built in 1904 and is an example of Golden Age rustic resort architecture. The architect was 29 year old Robert Reamer. It is the largest log hotel in the world. It is designated a National Historic Landmark.
There is an immense lobby and stone fireplace. The fireplace is 500 tons and 85ft high. There are four stories of balconies but only the lower two are open to the public.There are many rooms and shops as well as a bar and restaurant.
We climbed the stairs, walked out on the deck and selected a good seat for the show.
From our spot on the deck we could see steam puffing out Old Faithful. We waited in anticipation.
Some people walked up for a closer look.
After 45 min wait Old Faithful rumbled into action. It was an amazing sight.
After a few mins it started to wane.
Almost finished its show.
Good bye geyser and the Yellowstone National Park you didn't disappoint, it was a wonderful adventure here. I can tick another destination off my bucket list.
