Snow & Shopping - Wednesday, April 8

Today was the kid’s day.  Shopping was high on their list.  After a mixed breakfast of cereals, toasted bagels and scrambled eggs we drove to the Awahnee to look at the expensive goods in their gift shop, then onto the grocery store. Hayden bought a cool Yosemite hoodie while Greyson looked at the merchandise, but did not buy.  The snow had made the Valley unspeakably beautiful.  We spent an hour before our shopping spree taking photos of the snow on the cliffs and trees and the beautiful dogwood blooms laced with snow. Sally walked to the VC and bought the kids passport books for the National Parks.  Greyson, Hayden and I joined her there. The kids stamped their books and put stickers of Yosemite in them.  Next, we went to the Museum adjacent to the VC where we met Erik. He signed their books and we said goodbye.  We drove back to the campsite after the shopping trip, ate lunch and grabbed our bikes and headed to Mirror Lake.  Next, we rode to the Lodge so Greyson could check out the wilderness shop and gift shop. An It’s It and a few drinks and we were back on our bikes and headed back to camp. I drove Sally and Greyson to Curry Village for showers, then back to camp for dinner, Golf, Smore’s and our last night in the Valley.
