Yosemite birthday continued.....




Well, the birthday in Yosemite went well! Kitty, Ray and I met at Bridalveil falls at 11am... we all arrived within minutes of each other. We immediately set off to pay for room at Yosemite Lodge (could'nt check in til 5). We had a bit of brunch... then K and R rented bikes. We spent 3 plus hours in the bike seat!!!!! I had my mtn bike... so of course that made Ray want to go off road. (shhhhhhh). We rode over to the Ahwahnee and checked out the glamour hotel of Yose. After the ride, we checked in and had champange and played "pass the piggies" game. We had supper at Yosemite lodge mountain room. Mmmmmm. I had flat iron, Kitty had Prime rib and Ray had shrimp and pasta. We were stuffed!! There were still tourists in the valley... but not too many. The weather was superb! We even sweated on the bike ride! Had to stop for Screamers mid ride (screamers = ice cream).
On Weds AM we meandered down to Glacier Pt and Sentinel Dome. Hiked to the top of the dome and took a ton of pics (Ray and I were in Photographer mode!!!!)

All in all, this was a great birthday!! We were not in Hawai'i... but we got to spend my bday together. The only thing missing was Mom.... still in Paradise.
