Following a marathon of 14 National Parks in USA, Yosemite was the last one before we started a more urban visit from San Francisco to San Diego, mostly via California State Route 1. Stunning, breathtaking and surreal can describe the superb views of granite cliffs, meadows and waterfalls of Yosemite National Park. It was a…
