Greame & Sandra

Wednesday
We headed for the Yosemite National Park and Mono lake what wonderful scenery, the snow capped mountains getting closer we had a 5 mile rollercoaster of dips and turns that was excellent the ride through the passes were breath taking we called into  a village called Lee Vining for provisions for a picnic we got homemade chilli and lasagne and  taco‘s they were very tasty we carried on over the mountains to Carson City  to book our last nights in California and a early night.
Thursday
Carson City -Lake Tahoe-San Francisco
SNOWING!!!!! So glad we weren’t on a bike we got up to snow setting off with trepidation I don’t like auto’s especially in the snow and lights flashing on the road side “chain area chains needed” we set off with a snow plough in front to lake Tahoe what a journey not to be repeated the views were to die for though!! When we got to the lake we were advised to wait for a hour so the road could be cleared and boy im glad we did we st off slowly but the road wasn’t as bad as the pass earlier.
On getting closer to San Francisco we decided we must drive over the GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE so we detoured round and it was defiantly worth it.
