Yellowstone!

Manuel and I wanted to go and see Yellowstone. We drove up Friday after the sun had gone down behind the mountains, which was kind of disappointing, since we thought that it would have been a beautiful ride in daylight, based on the road twisting as if being in mountains. When we game closer to West Yellowstone, the roads got smaller and were covered with snow; however, the trucks going the upper site direction did not seam to care!

West Yellowstone looks like something from a movie taking place in Alaska. Every road is totally covered in snow and everyone including us was driving on the roads with our snowmobiles.The snow-covered roads make it an ideal place for making hand-break turns. We probably made about 50 of those. I prefer the ones when you make a 90 degree turn and has to continue down a street or when parking between cars. (I made Manuel a bit nervous a few times, but he admitted that I nailed it every time when parking!) This is how the back of the car lookes after the first day!
Here are some pictures from inside Yellowstone National Park: We had to dig out our couch from the deep snow, here is Manuel doing a good job.

This is the biggest snow couch on mattraks in the world!

Here am I in front of Old Faithful, which is the main attraction of all the geysers.
