On the way up to Yosemite, we stumbled across a little village (it is essentially a trailer park in the middle of Kingsburg), named Välkommen Village

This community is only for people 55 years of age or older. In other words, a place with old ass people.

Not a single swede in this "Swedish" village

The local McDonald's paid the village a tribute by erecting a large Dalahorse in front of the building

Glacier Point, the one location in Yosemite where you can see almost the entire valley. Everything from Half Dome to the might Yosemite Falls. However, this time of year, water is scarce.

Chipmunks dancing

Half Dome

One of few still flowing waterfalls. This time of year the entire park dries up, and even the mighty Yosemite Falls (not pictured here) will become a subtle stripe on the mountain side.

A hotel somewhere far down in the valley

Mom and daughter slowly wandering up the cliff

One of three flowing waterfalls, though only with a little trickle

Jesse stopped to pray once in a while. I don't blame his as the ambiance can't get much better. However, this session looked a bit funny as the hat is all you can see

3 Bergstrands and a Slovak

The way this trail looked like, the entire 3 miles we walked down

Hike-Nursing, an activity not for the faint of heart

Brothers holding hands

Taking a little break. Theron's pinkeye is not from exhaustion

Another view of Half Dome

The entire gang on the edge of the cliff. The camera is resting on some rock.

Someone eager to continue the hike

Even though Theron looks bored out of his mind, Mia sure enjoys the walk with her Uncle.

Dual Couple Picture. Just as cheesy as a Spanish soap opera.

Theron, found some imaginary women

Boredom...

On the walk to the visitor center, we encountered a few deers along the way

Going home, we went up highway 120 which passes by Tuolumne Meadows and depicted here, Tenaya Lake

What's better than wading in a lake all naked with mountains all around you?

Trying to look as mean as Mia looked like, 3 seconds before this picture was taken

The last stop before it got dark and we ran out of battery in both cameras, Mono Lake, a large but shallow lake with salt water right outside the border of Yosemite.
