Yosemite photos

Here are some shots from our day at Yosemite
First El Capitan a 3000 foot rock



Then we walked under the Bridal Veil waterfall, close enough to get wet.



Then it was a long drive of an hour plus drive to Mariposa Grove to walk amongst the giant sequoia trees. This was a three km walk up the hill and back






Then it was off to Glacier Point which was about 6000 ft plus above the Yosemite valley where we took in magnificent clear views of the valley (3000ft below) and the granite walls






Tomorrow we have a long downhill ride to Oakdale as we leave the mountains and turn back for the coast
