Yosemite National Park




Yesterday we went to Yosemite. It was a blast. We had lunch there and played in the snow. I think it was two feet deep! After that we went hiking up Verna falls but the path was block, because of danger of a rock slide. But the hike was two miles, one mile going up and one mile going down. Chosen made it up to the bridge, then he and my Mom went back down, while Glory, Grace, and I kept going up to Nevada falls. The hike up to Nevada was two miles long, plus going back down. It was very hard and we only made it to the half-way point,because the trail was close and it was getting dark. The trail was really slippery from the snow. Glory's favorite part was the "crying" rocks. They were rocks that had water dripping down and it made it sound like they were crying.Grace's favorite part was a natural spring. It was on the way down and when we got there we took off our shoes and soaked our sore feet. My favorite part was on the way back down. We started sing "The bear went over the mountain, the bear went over the mountain, the bear went over the mountain to see what he could see!" Then we changed the lyrics to "Nevada falls was closed, Nevada falls was closed, Nevada falls was closed! So we didn't get to see!" Meanwhile Chosen and Mom were back at the car, playing in the snow. Then Mom noticed a bear! Chosen was really excited but Mom was scared. When we finally got to the car Mom said she had been really worried that a bear would be on the trail. But we reassured her that we saw no wildlife,not even a deer or rabbit. But we saw a bunch of tracks! Rabbit, squirrel, deer, and bear tracks! Oh my! We had lots of fun and I hope we go there again soon!
