A modern-day Mack Sennett?


A long drive from SF today, not much to see on the way, but we did stop at the Oakland Raiders stadium for a couple of pics. When we arrived at Yosemite it started to rain. Typical! Nevermind we had a good view of the waterfalls - they are very impressive. As you can see, Dan has everything the cameraman needs to take great photos - a good camera and lens, a tripod and a SF 49'ers hat on back to front!

We got to Glacier Point just as the clouds closed in, just enough time to get one or two good shots, then it rained and rained.

On the way out of Yosemite we followed the Merced river downstream. It's like a combination of a big Ystradfellte and the Afan Valley! Granite boulders in the river the size of houses, rapids and a disused railway track the other side of the valley that is briefly used to aviod a huge landslide.

Hopefully the weather will be better tomorrow, we're staying here another day in the hope of seeing Yosemite and blue skies.
