Stopped by Yosemite.

Yosemite National Park

On our trip to Alaska we stopped off to see Yosemite National Park.  It was truly amazing.  The boys favorite park of the park was when we walked up to the Bridalveil Falls.  The mist of this massive waterfall could be felt yards away from the drop point.  When we finally reached the drop point it felt like we were in a heavy rain fall storm.  There was a wind that whipped around and  blew water all over your entire body.  To look up we felt the freezing cold water splash in our faces.  If you could keep your eyes open long enough to see you could spot rainbows in the mist.  Of course we could take pictures for being afraid that our electronics would be ruined by the water.  It was one of those experiences that leaves you in awe of God's glory and might power of His creation.  

(Just a note: wear flip flops and a poncho and take a water proof camera, wished I had know this in order to capture this amazing site.)

Our second day to Yosemite we spent the morning walking through and visiting the massive giant sequoia trees.  Another amazing site!  

This is the waterfall that we walked up to and stood under.

This is part of the base of Bridalveil Falls.  Here we are a good ways away from the base of the waterfall. Even this far away you could feel the mist and see the mighty waters running.

This is what is known as half dome.

In 1997 the river here reached the top of this plague, which it right above the boys head

Sunset in Yosemite. Wish I could paint this picture.
