TWB June 17th 2019 Experience: Day 13-Yosemite

Day 13: Yosemite

Hey everybody!!! Sneezys here again to tell y’all about our fantastic bus ride through Yosemite. We woke up today in San Francisco at 5:00am to get on the road towards today’s destination. At 8:00am this morning we had to stop at the world famous Wal-Mart for our cooks and a tiny pit stop for the bus and van riders. Our cooks grabbed some yummy food for our next couple meals. After our trip we hoped on the vans and bus to get too our destination for today.

Once we were on the road again, we were served cereal in a cup. The choices were Frosted flakes, Honey Nut Cheerios, and Lucky Charms. This breakfast was very delicious! After breakfast, we listened to some tunes from DJ Tim to make our long drive easier. Some didn’t want a part in the music so they decided to catch some Z’s. Some may have been caught with their mouths open and of course pictures were taken. We made another pit stop so the vans could fill up for gas. Some of us took a bathroom break at CVS and others went to Jack in the box.

Once we loaded the bus/vans lunch was served. Today we had Turkey and Cheese wraps. They were delicious. For our sides we had carrots with ranch and potato chips. It wasn’t long after lunch that we were pulling into the entrance to Yosemite. Let us just say one word….TRAFFIC!!! It felt like we were there for hours. Out of no where, we here sirens and of course the ambulance had a hard time getting through because of our trailers attached to our vans.

Through the twist and turns of the mountains of Yosemite we finally we able to make our way out of the park, 5 hours later. Yosemite is such a popular destination for tourists from all around the world because it is just so beautiful. Right outside of the park, we discovered a snow outcrop. Our counselors had a fun time throwing snowballs at us. Fun pictures were taken, more snowballs were thrown, and many decided to find a nice tree to use the restroom behind. Once we were loaded onto the bus, we headed to our campsite down the hill from Yosemite, in Lee Vining, California.

While V was checking us in, everyone played on the playground and it brought back many childhood memories. V called everyone back onto the bus and vans and we drove just a little ways to our campsite. The bus packers then unpacked and dinner was being cooked. The cooks did a phenomenal job on our burrito bowls tonight (shout out to the Dopeys)!! A seagull decided it liked our burrito bowl too and took a few bites of Bailey Dulin’s!!! Belle takes the win for being pooped on. We ended the night with a nice sing-a-long where we sang our favorite tunes. Now, everyone is getting bundled up and ready to take on this cold night just right outside of Yosemite! We’re signing off for the night, but we will see you tomorrow as we travel into Salt Lake City!
