Day 9 - Yosemite day two

We spent the night at a KOA, in the cutest cabin. I had images of screened in walls and a cement floor, but it was a miniature log cabin with a log bed and bunkbeds, and a two built in desk and log chairs. We didn't get to spend much time there because we wanted to get off early to spend some time in Yosemite before getting on the road to San Fransisco.




On the drive back to Yosemite we took the longest shortcut in history. Jeffrey looked at the map and saw that one road was considerably shorter than taking the highway. What we got ended up being a one lane dirt mountain road that we had to take at some points at about five miles an hour. The only people we past were very surprised looking firefighters doing a training maneuver.


Yosemite was much more crowded than the day before being that it was fourth of July weekend, but we still decided to go see the more popular Sequoia grove rather than hike out to the more secluded spots, and I am so glad we did. The pictures say it all, and then again, they can't quite say enough. They were magnificent.



We made it into San Fransisco by nightfall. Even with all the beauty we had seen that day we were blessed with a spectacular sunset. We were filled up.
