Anna- second day at Yosemite

On our second day we woke up to see a clear blue sky and absolutely amazing sights. We got ready for a long hike to Vernal Fall. All uphill but we got there eventually. We saw hundreds of squirrels, darting around all over the place. Near the end there was a steep climb up lots of stairs. We got really wet from all the spray from the waterfall. At the top we had our lunch and stood right at the start of the fall. There was obviously a barrier but if there wasn't you wouldn't be going anywhere near the edge! We then had to get all the way back down and decided to take a different path to avoid getting soaked all over again. It was a slightly longer route but it was a change of scenery. It was steep at the beginning but the started to flatten out before walking downhill. On the way down we were walking through snow drifts which was really cool. We had done enough walking for one day so we went straight to dinner. After dinner we went back to housekeeping camp, then went to the store to get firewood and marshmallows, chocolate, and biscuits for s'mores. It was a bit warmer for us for our last night.
