The 3rd day in Yosemite was by far my favorite day there. We woke up super early to catch the sunrise at Inspiration Point and it was worth it, its unbelievably breath taking. We drove all the way into yosemite valley to hike the John Muir Trail up to Half Dome. We knew we couldnt make it all the way to the top because of the late winter the park service hadnt set up the cables yet...so we will be going back next year for sure to finish the trip. The hike was amazing, we hit the trail early and beat a lot of the other visitors so we had a super peaceful trip up to the base of half dome. The scenery was gorgeous from the minute we got out of the car to the base and back.

The hike up to Vernal Falls was a stair stepper and I got soaking wet from all the moisture from the falls.

6.2 miles in on the John Muir Trail to Half Dome, in the backcountry with no one around and we come across a bear with her cubs...my heart has never raced so fast in my whole life.
