DAY 11 | Cody and the Silver Dollar | ||
A roadside breakfast picnic, beside the Madison river.
Our last visit to Yellowstone, we ended up parking on the road as the queues for the car park didn't seem to be moving.
The Grand Prismatic, a must see for all visitors. We could not have timed our visit to the region any better, whilst the park and Yellowstone West were busy, pre covid and devastating flood which had recently closed the park etc the area would have been heaving.
The largest and most colourful of Yellowstones hot springs.
Another geyser crater perfumed with sulphur.
Excelsior Geyser Crater.
Steamboat point, a stopping point on this vast lake.
The historic Irma Hotel in Cody, The Hotel named after buffalo Bill Codys daughter.
We find ourselves allocated the Agnes Chamberlin suite, decked out with oldy worldy furniture.
Ian meets up with an old friend..Buffalo Bill himself.
A rather boozy afternoon and evening in the Silver Dollar Saloon, Halo Huckleberry Honey, craft beer, gives you a pretty good headache if drunk to excess!
The Buffalo chicken salad was a bit too spicy for me, so was replaced with a caesar instead.
Goodnight dear reader xx
