Yosemite National Park

Hola!

How are you?

It is precisely 3 am, and I'm walking with Ksiurem and will get last.

The last time was a mixture of sensations, fatigue, emotions and lack of time.

But I return with new strength and new stories.

For the next eight weeks I'm going to go with ksiurem for walks, eat herring, last, chanterelle, smoked fish, fresh Polish eggs from hens cock, sprats, cheese with oil budwigowym and vegetables. Drink nettle, Zubrowka, Muszynianka and kefir. Sleep, write, embrace and meet with loved ones. And then ... we get to later :)

Certainly will note in this respect, and in the meantime let's go back to the various stories that I hold in store.

Today we go to one of the most beautiful national parks.

Yosemite, California

Yosemite is located in Central California on the slopes of the Sierra Nevada Mountains.

The most popular part of it, which we visited and we are Yosemite Valley.

We stayed with friends J in the village of Curry Village, this is ridiculous in these tents.

Believe it or not, but one Domko tent must be booked at least one year prior to arrival.

The tent is nothing but a metal-wooden structure, covered with a white sheet. Inside, there are beds, a shelf and a safe.

The green box is a box for food and cosmetics, which should not be kept in the car or in a tent.

But why?

Because I go everywhere ourselves not at all sweet teddy bears, rakuny, skunks, deer and other zwierzaczki.

Any encampment in the parks in the USA, they are very well equipped. What step are clean bathrooms with hot showers and warm food.

As you can see zwierzaczki enjoy the company of people.

But believe me, meeting face to face with a teddy bear Bears at 1 am, not too pleasant experience.

Until it appeared Mr. Ranger and a bear chased a truly masculine, 'Go bear!' (!)

...

In Yosemite Valley you can not get bored.

Climbing, walking, cycling, kayaking ...

Currently, California is a fairly serious drought.

This occurred to me when we passed while driving orange red blackened fields and came to a dried park.

River barely reaches the ankles, dried up waterfalls, and the water level is extremely low.

I hope that before I dropped back a lot of rain.

J took me in his secret place, where you can see above the tree crowns the whole panorama of the valley.

I doubt that there is a better seat reservation with such views and lack of tourists.

It was well over 100F, the sun burned amazing while we were sitting admiring the views.

Yosmite is pure nature, streams, lakes, picturesque granite cliff, redwoods and waterfalls, which unfortunately I could not see.

It's hard to find a more picturesque place.

Instead of climbing we chose relax by the river and look for unique places.

12 hours trek in this heat, it does and it does not seem like a good idea.

       J is a fan of rock climbing, so we stayed on longer at El Capitan, which is a very popular place for climbing. 

We watched people seeking different paths or hiding in crevices in front of the blazing sun.

Being in Yosemite worth devoting 40 minutes. to get to Sequoia National Park and see the tree through which you can drive a car.

PS Never give up!
