Sze Ying's store manager, Mike and his roomie Dan brought us out on a grand tour around Yellowstone! After breakfast, we went to Kepler Cascades, West Thumb Geyser Basin, Lake Hotel, Buffalo Bill State Dam, then to Cody (a town just outside the east entrance of the park) for lunch. As we were driving towards Cody, we found a meticulously built snowman.. Which Dan later on destroyed. This picture of Dan is hilarious so I just gotta post it up!

At Cody, we had our first non-EDR meal at a diner called Irma's! The food was really yums! Mike brought us to Walmart after that, and I think us girls went a little overboard there.. Heh. Can't blame us, it was our first shopping trip after being stuck in the park for so long! Drove into the park again and this time, we drove to the Lake Butte Overlook, Mud Volcano (bubbling mud!), Sulphur Cauldron (it really stinks of rotten eggs in the summer), Upper Falls and Norris Geyser Basin. We were so exhausted by the end of it all! But also really thankful to Mike for being so sweet to us. :)

Sometime during the week, I went back to West Yellowstone again with Faith. I loved how quaint the town is. Got recommendations from locals to have lunch at Canyon Street Grill, and that's where we went for burgers & milkshakes! The weather was great that day - not too chilly - and we had a fun time shopping! Our favourite part of the day was when we found a scrapbooking shop there - needless to say we ended up spending a little over an hour there buying scrapbook material! Ended our day with dessert & coffee. Perfecto! :)
