Where are we.......

Ok! Lets's see where are we up too? So we made it into Yosemite via some very steep terrain, much to Derek's dismay, don't know why, the cliff edge was on my side of the car pretty much all the way!!! Again we drove through smoke filled valleys from the fires, were detoured and then finally made it into Yosemite...well almost! The motel we were changed to, by bookings.com, because of said fires was approx 8miles outside of the gates into Yosemite AND THEN you had to drive a further 5miles (20.92147kms in total) to get to the visitors centre and all the shuttle buses. Long way, but! AND how archaic, the motel had no WiFi and their Internet service, if you could get onto it was zip/zero/nuf'n........best reception was in the actual park itself!! Any-hoo....Yosemite was lovely however dry, only 2 of the waterfalls were running, we walked/trekked to the closest which was about 4.5miles (7.242048kms) Made our days very exhausting, great exercise regime, makes up for me not going to the gym......saw deer, squirrels, chipmunks but no bears, except for paw prints and poo! So we did our 3 days there and headed for San Francisco, drive wasn't all too bad, Mr Worgan again was his usual self regarding other drivers and their standards.........!?!?!? Have arrived and the house we're staying at is PURPLE....old and a little musty in flavour, owned by a drag queen or something! Bummer AGAIN, no WiFi and get this NO TV, I know, I know......we're on holidays and we should be outside, but it's when you come back in, to just veg in front of one and catch up on stuff...even though all American reports here are on the Syrian Crisis! So yesterday we firmiliarised ourselves with the Castro and then went down to the bay. Walked along all the Piers and headed into the Americas Cup area, it was practice day, but we got to see Oracle the cheating US entry....scoot past us. Made it to the famous Fisherman's Wharf had our Clam Chowder (wasn't that nice) got on a trolley car and headed all the way back to the Castro. That's it so far..... PnD xx
