Trial and Error at Yellowstone National Park

I don't remember if I've mentioned this yet, but our broadcast journalism department is quite blessed (or spoiled) this year. We have new cameras, new computers (the monitors are like, 3x the size of my tv) and a new editing program! HOLLA, as Skye would say :)
Since I'm going to be director of the show this year I need to know how to work everything before school starts! So I've been playing with one of the cameras and even took one to Yellowstone yesterday. Lemme tell ya. Holy nice.




Nathalia.

Even her penguin friend was snackin!

Victoria. Notice her new haircut?

Jessica. She always makes faces.

My father and his best friend. Funny story: the other day my sisters and I were quietly going through my dad's pictures (I think we were in the doctor's waiting room waiting for my mother and finished reading all the magazines...). We noticed that my dad literally had more pictures of Chato than us. HAHAH you think we're obsessed with him? You think we love him? You haven't seen my dad. 

Chato- the son my dad always wanted

and one of me because I'm never on the other side of the camera.

I swear every time we go to Yellowstone we pass by this gorgeous pond, but never get a chance to stop and take pictures. I finally convinced the driver! It went like this, "Dad! Stop!" He was pretty upset and that something was wrong. Oh well. hehe


I think my mom and I really bonded on this trip through the cameras. We helped each other get better shots and sort of had a competition on who got the better ones haha 



I'm always amazed at how many people travel to Yellowstone. I had this crazy thought looking back at this picture. You know that saying, every person in your dream you've seen before because your brain can't come up with a new one? This is where brain pulls them from, I'm sure.

The classic Old Faithful photo.

I absolutely love the Old Faithful lodge building. I mean, who wouldn't want this extremely extravagant chimney for their Christmas pictures??




Don't worry we took the other trail. Significantly shorter, but just as steep. View made it worth it.


Yeah, that buffalo can swim better than I can and I paid for lessons when I was younger. 
Teach me how to swim, teach me teach me how to swim. Name that song!



Overall great trip.
