Yosemite National Park (150kms)

Today we went into the mountains for some awe inspiring views. We started with a tour around the Sequoia trees in mariposa grove. They are the tallest trees in the world and some of the oldest. They were fantastic with huge circumferences and souring heights into the heavens. We also spotted deer, foxes and squirrels in the trees.
Then we drove to the heart of Yosemite National park where we looked at the Ansel Adams gallery and then did a very steep 3km hike up the hills for even more amazing views. The altitude made it very hard to breath at the top but worth it.


This place should be on everyone's bucket list as it was incredible and I want to return so that I can spend more time here and do more of the walks - spring next time.
