...Weekend at Yosemite

I dont have too much time, but lets see how far I get.


If i have disapered for a couple days is because Friday night I went to Yosemite national park. The park has the wierdest pronounciation in earth, it took me a while to get the hang on how to pronounce it,but i think now im starting to get it right. Friday I decided to chill in the city. In the morning i changed hostels since i didnt really like the one I was at, and later I stayed in the center. I walked around Union Station and went shopping. After spending a bit of money I realized I had promised myself NOT to SHOP and I started window shopping. That didnt exactly work as I got extremly bored. Shoping just aint my thing,but it gets worse if I dont have money. So I went and had lunch and read my new book. If anybody is intrested the book is called: We wish to inform you that tommorrow we will be killed with our families. (Yeah, long title!) I decided to walk a bit more, but it was all shops. I didnt want to go too far cuz by 5pm i had to be at the hostel so after geting frustrated cuz i couldnt go into Prada and Gucci as I usually do I ended up in my temptation... Starbucks Frapuccino for 1 hour... were I ofcourse continued my book. Later I returned to the hostel where i checked my mail and was picked up by the Bug Bus to go to Yosemite. There were only 6 of us on the "bus" (van) which was really cool. We drove for 3 hours until the park. The "Yosemite Bug Resort" was located outside the park. We arrived by night and were assigned our rooms. I got a bit pissed of cuz the price in the brouchure was lower than the one we had to pay...but hey i couldnt walk back to SF ... Anyways,the price difference was duable. So I went to sleep. The next day we woke up at 7 and left by 8am and did 3 different hicks (is this how you spell it???). Well we walked in the mountain is what i mean! First we went to see one of the biggest trees in the park. They were litteraly HUGE (pictures to come soon!). Then we walked up up up to centenial dome where we had a 360 view of the park, it was gorgeous. WE had lunch there were a few squirrels were walking around to try and grab our sandwitches (which were very lekker!). And later we went to see a beautifull waterfall. It took us about 2 hours to walk till the waterfall but it was great, except it was up up up up hill. I was not in the group of fast walkers. I had to walk on my own cuz i wasnt with the slow group either :) How do I always end up as a left over?? LOL the walking was worth it, at some point there was a bit of a breeze/wind which was blowing the water to the trail and it got me wet which was great:) Not soked wet but just a bit of water... The day was exhausting,finally by about 7.30pm we were back at the bug. The problem was that the bug hostel was in a hill and our dorm was UP the hill :s More steps and more walking.... Later in the night we did a camp fire and this guy was playing the guitar and singing. It was nice. Nobody was really saying much,but sitting there and seeing the fire was nice. Also it was very easy to see the stars which was beautiful! The next day we went mountainbiking and then we got to swim in the beautiful and cold river. I decided against it and just sat in the shore,but the view was very nice... Due to some administrative/logsitical issues we got a refund, so I got 28 dollars back :D and I still mostly got to enjoy all the things so it all worked quite fine with me. Last night I was droped at the hostel in SF and being exhausted i didnt do much. I met the people in my new room which were really nice, but they all left today. I have been told to change room today and im in an overcrowded room...hope to meet my new roomamates tonight. Both in the bug and here i have had mix dorms, and hey as long as i dont sleep with 4 english drunk guys (which hasnt happend) its not taht bad. Today i have moved room so i dont know if im in an all girls or mix dorm...we will see tonight...

Got to run or ill be late!
