October 2012
We celebrated the end of Gunnar's enthusiastic (read sarcastically) soccer season and my birthday (read enthusiastically) weekend with a trip to Yosemite. Our bags were packed...
First stop, the Whoa Nelly Delly, near the gorgeous Mono Lake.
Then across the Tioga Pass (which was open on our way there...)
And into the park, onto our journey of breathtaking views.
Half dome...
El Capitan...
Off to the valley...
Delicious brunch at the Ahwahnee...
This was our only bear sighting...
Off to the sequoias in the Mariposa Grove...
We did find some wildlife!
Just how big is a sequoia?
Oh what a difference a day makes!
It was a long ride home. Tioga was closed, and so we took the scenic route. Thank goodness for a dad and husband who braved the cold to deck us out in chains!
