Yosemite Day 2

Waterfalls are the keyword for today. I was determined to see some. We picked a hike on the Strenuous list. The thing about this park being so huge. Once we enter Yosemite, it is still an hour drive to the visitor center and the area we needed to be. We wanted to start this 7 mile hike early so we had to leave the camper at 6am. That was tough! But it felt great when we were heading to the car at 12:30 having accomplished this amazing hike as a family! This hike was called the Mist Trail. We were able to get fairly close to TWO amazing falls. Vernal Falls and then Nevada Falls. I love the sound of the rushing water over the falls! Obviously the hike up was the hardest. It was very steep. Guess who was in the lead? The little girl who says she is going to be a stunt girl or a rock climber! Scarlett! :) The trail was a nice loop so we did not have to go back down the way we came. This completed our time at Yosemite National Park! Faith and Scarlett earned another Jr. Ranger badge along with a couple of patches. Day 19. This trip is a dream. I am so thankful for this opportunity to be able to bring our children on a trip like this. Beyond Grateful.
