San Francisco to Yosemite

Day 10


Road Trip!





We headed into downtown San francisco to pick up out hire car.  The roads in that area are a nightmare, of one way systems combined with 4 lane streets.  Claire decided she was going to drive first, I was pretty glad she did as I had no idea how to drive a automatic.  We were in the car no longer than a minute and people were beeping at us, this was due to the fact we were blocking the entrance and exit to a multistory car park.  We decided at the last second to get a sat nav with the car. Best money ever spent.  We were soon on our way out of the city and onto Yosemity.








After aabout a hour and half I took over the driving and it soon headed up hill!  The road climbed to  over 6000ft and there were some pretty tight winding roads, Claire looked worried.




The Famous Half Dome Mountain.



Eventually we made it to Curry Camp, where we are staying in a posh tent thing. It came with a heater, claire decided she did not want to use it.  Lets just say we woke up at about 4 am, freezing our ass off.
