Leaving Yosemite Valley always makes me sad

We saw some beautiful sights leaving the valley. One last view of Half Dome, Glacier Point, North Dome, Yosemite Falls, Cathedral Rocks, El Capitan, and more. 

Train back to Seattle

Got to Sacramento at midnight and transferred to the Coast Starlight at 1pm. We are having gourmet oatmeal and Amtrak coffee for breakfast. Amtrak definitely needs to contract with Starbucks

Camp Curry show

Hanging around the valley

We had all day today to explore Yosemite  Valley an visit all the old familiar places

Bob's early morning hikes

Bob got up early every day and did some strenuous hikes- Little Yosemite to Clouds Rest, elevation 10,000. This morning he did 23 miles from Camp Curry to Clouds Rest- 23 miles. 

Back at Camp Curry today

We are staying at Camp Curry today. Last night I went to the 7pm show like we did as kids! Brought back memories

Back to the Valley via the Mist Trail

 

 

 Best time of all was hiking from Little Yosemite down to Nevada Falls and then the Mist Trail from Vernal Falls. I did this as a child with my Mother and Dad and sisters. It is gorgeous!

Sightings of "Stale Noynine" and "Fresh Peggy" - named by my Dad after my sisters many years ago - you had to be there!!
