For Spring Break this year we decided we were ready for Yosemite National Park. The park was as awe inspiring as others had told us. There is so much beauty surrounding you it is almost impossible to take it all in. Here are a few of the highlights from our trip.  |
| We made it to San Francisco. With only an afternoon, we did a quick tour of the sights of the city from the wharf (including the sea lions) to Chinatown and The Financial District. |
