Travelling

Since New Year's eve, we have

1. driven down the Californian coast to Big Sur
   
2. seen elephant seals on the beach, including a particularly dumb baby
   
3. failed to see Hearst Castle (it's shut on NY day)
   
4. seen Moro Rock (a place DH remembers from a trip 22 years ago)
   
5. visited a soda lake
   
6. driven across the San Andreas faultline
   
7. climbed up out of the seemingly endless central plains to see a 130 year old engineering feat
   
8. brushed the edge of the Mojave (I am SO not going there in summer!)
   
9. driven more of the endless plains in RAIN!
   
10. finally reached Yosemite.
    

It is snowy in Yosemite and gorgeous. I just wish I had not picked up DH's cold - am pushing too hard and now have blocked ears, half deaf and hurties! Especially since we keep having to climb up 3000' or so the drop back down. Plus a cough that even worries DH - which is an achievement, LOL

Tomorrow night we will be home. Thereafter I can assault you with pics, bad videos and tales of derring-do! (well at least the first two.)
