Same Shirt, Different day-2012 Adventures of the "Devonport Wonder Babes"

Friday 4th May Headed off to Yosemite National Park on beautifully sunny day. Park entrance (where you pay your $20 entry fee for car and occupants for up to 7 days) is about 4 miles from Fish Camp and then the very well maintained road winds through another 35 miles of beautiful forests and views and emerges from a tunnel to a lookout where there is the most spectacularly beautiful view up the canyon and mountains beyond. A really emotional experience that reduced both of us to tears. Drove on down to canyon floor and spent some time at Visitors centre before going on a 2 hr tour around the canyon floor –open seating for about 50 people on truck trailer bed with very informative and entertaining young National Park Ranger. Saw 2 groups of climbers on El Capitan-takes 2 days to climb and they sleep out on cliff overnight!! Saw lots of deer but no bears. 4 million people visit this national park each year, many of them staying in the park for a week or two.
