Today's itinerary starts at Old Faithful and goes to Norris. (The southwest quadrant.)
Our favorites today: Old Faithful, the Daisy geyser, Grand Prismatic Spring, Artist Paint Pots (Steve) and Fountain Paint Pots (me). The one at Artist Paintpots that spit mud was especially entertaining. Here are photos from today, starting at Old Faithful.
Day 3, our first full day at Yellowstone; Old Faithful, naturally

Geyser cones
The Grotto geyser, one of the oddest shapes
Another hot spring
A geyser by the river
Morning Glory pool, at the end of a trail, and worth the hike
We also caught the Daisy geyser errupting; in some ways this is more interesting than Old Faithful
Another odd looking geyser
Grand Prismatic Spring? It's hard to remember the names after a while
Another spring at the same geyser basin
