The main attraction at Yellowstone are of course the many Geysers. They are a bit easier to find them, than bears or bisons as they don’t run away. Many hot and boiling ponds provide a very nice and mostly colorfull spectacle. The water bubbles as the hot steam searches a way to the surface. Sometimes…
Shortly after entering the Yellowstone National park, a massive traffic jam built up. 1st gear driving for quite some distance normally would one drive crazy. Here this looks like a good sign! Something must be very interesting and soon I will know what? A bear, a bison or an Elk? It happened to be a…
The “Three Bears Lodge” will be my new home for the next 4 nights. I was really pleased to see, that the hotel matches the advertisement on the internet. Its really, what i looked for. A nice comfortable place.
A road sign “Geological Site” followed by a recreation area exit, got my attention. It was anyway time for a break to recover a bit from driving. Now I would have expected just a simple sign with some explanations, that here thousands and thousands of years ago some lava erupted, but nothing else. Well the…
Todays goal was to get to West Yellowstone, where a nice hotel waits for me to host me for the next 4 days. Around 500 km had to be left behind. As there was relative little traffic, that did not sound too complicated. And the weather created a beautiful scenery, such that driving was a…
While Salt Lake City was only on the list of cities or places to visit as it offered an airport to arrive, I anyway did a short walk through the city. More specifically throughout the Temple Square. As it was Sunday, there was quite some activity on that block. Many, moustly younger people or families…
After quite some time in the air or queuing on the ground, i finally made it to Salt Lake City. Quickly grabbing my car at the airport and – thanks to navigation systems – a short drive to the hotel, I am quite happy, that everything went well so far. And at the moment even…
Arriving a Chicago one is greeted with big welcome signs. That this ends up in a huge social event one recognizes rather quickly a few meters further. Looking at the impressive Queue in front of the immigration desk, immediately made me calculating the approximate waiting time and comparing that with my transfer window. Ok, it…
Looks like flying has become less of an art than in the old days. Kind of “just follow the yellow line” navigation brings me safely to my stop over at Chicago. Reading some old, left over, editions of c’t and watching a movie or too, the time passes rather quickly. Your browser does not support…
Kind if perfect timing – my plane is scheduled around noon – a really beautiful autumn weather promises a nice and relaxing flight. So far I enjoyed a pleasant trip to the airport, an efficient self checkin without any queuing and a couple of well behaving security officers. Looks like the plane is already at…
