Reflection
What I learned was so amazing. I love geysers and how they work. I think it is so amazing that our earth can make a hose, and natural hot tubs.I think this Skype was valuable because we just learned more facts. This will totally help in the future if we ever study rocks and minerals. Or even Yellowstone in general.
