We are here paying a visit to my aunt Gloria. We have been to theCalifornia?State?Capitol?Building, the nature center, and the zoo. I have seen many interesting things, but one stands out above the rest. This morning we drove from my aunts home to Calistoga to see Californias Old Faithful Geyser (老忠实泉). I had read about it in my book,?Sightseeing in?California: Where You Should Go.?You have probably heard of Old Faithful, the geyser farther north in?Yellowstone?National Park. This?California?geyser is sometimes called “Little Old Faithful.” When we arrived?Californias?Old Faithful?was only a calm pool of water. The geyser didnt look very deep.?“Whats the big deal?”?I wondered. As I turned, I saw some steam (蒸气) rising from the water. Before I knew it, there was hot water shooting (射) up about 60 feet into the air. We could not believe our eyes! It continued for almost three minutes. Aunt Gloria told me that the water came from an underground river. She also said that the water temperature was about?95℃. This water can sometimes shoot 170 feet into the air. My aunt said that other geysers around the world reach hotter temperatures and shoot water even higher than?Californias Old Faithful Geyser. Id love to learn more about this geyser and other geysers in different countries when I get home. Ill see you soon! ????????????????????????????????????????????????
