Rafting in Yosemite

Today we searched for a new adventure and accomplished something Daddy had done many times, many years ago.... we rafted done the Merced River in Yosemite. We loaded our bikes, life jackets, rafts, paddles and lunch into the bicycle trailer and rode up to the drop in spot on the river. Although Grandpa and Daddy had been this route before and had many fond memories, it was our girls' first time.

Rafting was a fantastic way to enjoy Yosemite. We travelled the pace of a snail, sometimes even paddling to avoid being blown up wind. We splashed and paddled in circles, we boat hopped and picnicked, we swam and floated. It was really nice to enjoy this wondrous place at our own pace. No traffic, no distractions, no time frame...... just fun!
A must-do again!!
