Our last big trip before having a baby was to Yosemite National Park, in California. It was a long road trip, but we listened to 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, and loved it. A few times we found we were WAY over-speeding on the freeway when we were at an intense part of the book. I won't say how fast...
This is how we felt after our first night of camping (remember that I was 6 months pregnant at the time). We couldn't find a campground by nightfall and ended up pulling onto a dirt road off the side of the highway, and setting up a tent. It was an awful night. Creepy noises of howling animals I've never heard before left us looking like this all night.
We were pretty roughed up. When it started to get a little bit light, we saw that we
were about 100 yards from a house. We had parked and camped on someone's property! We tossed everything into the car and got out fast.

Here we are at the park!
A bear went through our camp...we could hear it walking through that night, and brush up against our tent.
And here is a clip from the top of a really high viewpoint (forgot the name). Anyway,
my finger points to the waterfall that is pictured above. It was gorgeous.
One of the highlights of the trip was definitely Highway 121 (I think that's the one). We felt like we were on a roller coaster and were laughing so hard.
