End of California 14th June

Yep nearly a month since we arrived we made it out of California and into Nevada (only just as we found a clown Motel in a silver mine town). It was quite hard as we nearly stayed another ‘extra day’ as we stumbled across June Lake, another idyllic camp site.

So what have we been up too? Well Yosemite kept us busy for 4 days and again we could have spent a whole while longer. We didn’t go on any back country walks, see I am trying and speed up. We did see the glory of Yosemite. I am not sure that I can add much to that.

Louise found a soul mate in another fashion design girl from San Francisco. They shared designs, thrift store shopping and a sleep over – a real Yosemite experience. actually they also got to check out an old mining town, float down the river in rafts, swim in Rainbow Pool and feed Donkeys, so not bad for 4 days.

Jacob chose to read his books so Angela and I got to go on a hike to some falls on our own – good job.

Here are the pics to see what I am going on about.

Never let the scenery spoil a book

We saw prints but no bear.

Oh, he looks up too.

Flowers, pretty but yet to be identified.

Soda Stream – well spring. It really did taste of soda.

Deer comming out of the meadow.

Amazing, just walking along the trail and there you go deer crossing stream.

Lake June

Being harrased by wild life.

Happy at June (with coffee

Big tree in a forest of big trees, this is a sequoa (sorry about the spelling).

Route 120; A Highway that was stunning

OMG – walking in the valley

No kids, we couldn’t face a whinging Jacob so left him in the car park.

Ha – we had water, ‘cos we had the water filter.
