It wasn't in the original plans, but being in the area we just couldn't pass up a couple of days in Yosemite! Plus, over travel buddy had never been there before, so we took the opportunity to show off some of our favorite easy to get to spots.
It's always fun to chill out on the falls,
and for Papa to show off his mountain man side.
The falls are always a bit slower in the fall, but still amazing;
Bridal Veil
Upper & Lower Yosemite Falls.
If you're ever hiking in the area, head into the big boulders just off the path (where allowed) it's amazing the temperature difference under the boulders, a good way to get out of the heat.
As we were heading to our campsite, just out of Yosemite, we took a back road, and ended up in a herd of cows being herded down the road by a bunch of cowboys. The picture doesn't quite do it justice (they were covering the road), but it was pretty cool.
And camping is always fun!
The next day we hit up Hetch Hetchy.
We hiked the 5 miles round trip to Wapama Falls. (I must admit I did pretty good hiking, especially if we sang songs while we hiked).
Wapama Falls has some falls great pools above the Reservoir. ("The Cool of the Pool"- a little Dr. Seuss).
It's a great place for a little lunch,
And Papa to cool off.
We love Yosemite!
