A long drive when we left Kings Canyon so a big breakfast - but ordering is so complicate. “How would you like your eggs ma’am?” “er, fried?” Wrong answer, she was looking for Over, Up, or whatever else they do with them here. Then it’s “biscuits, bacon, sausage, muffin, wheat, white, rye, griddle cake or potatoes ma’am?” Err…

So with our huge American breakfast inside us and the roof down, we drove past all the snowy trees twinkling in the bright sunlight - risking melting snow dumping on our heads! It was 8,000 feet down then 6,000 feet back up into Yosemite. The landscape was breathtaking but different again to the places we have been with huge sheer rock faces, waterfalls, trees, canyons and rivers. Everything is on a larger than life scale. Our home this time was a log cabin nestling in the trees - very cute. We were incredibly lucky to spend our days viewing the sights in glorious sunshine with a snowy blanket making everything more dramatic. As we drove through the park, every stop was littered with photographers peering through their huge camera lenses for the perfect shot. We are quite the opposite - rather snap happy and currently on about 1500 pics - oops - lots of weeding out to do!! Didn’t see any bears but a very friendly coyote which we thought was a wolf!
