Yellowstone {Day 8}

Well, we are packed and ready for the trip home.  We were all sad to be leaving, but were ready to sleep in our own beds.  We didn't get a super early flight this time (thank goodness).  So we got to the airport around 10:30am and boarded our flight to Denver at 11:50am.  Overall, it was an uneventful trip back.  We did end up with a delay in Denver which made our layover last around 3 hours.  We ended up getting into Austin at 9:20pm and after getting our bags and car we got home around 11:00pm.  We all slept late the next morning!  {Our seasoned travelers} Our Yellowstone vacation was definitely a trip of a lifetime.  It was all we could have wished for and more!
