{We're Baaaaaaack!}

We are home after a WONDERFUL Spring Break up in Yosemite with the Romeros. We got back around 10:30pm yesterday and are going to unwind today and unpack the trailer. We only got sporadic internet service up @ the RV Resort, so I couldn't post more pictures after the other day...due to rain. We went to Mercer Caverns on a rainy Wednesday and had a great time! Here are some more pictures of our trip:

{This was the only thing in the caverns that we were allowed to touch. It's called "The Twins" and you can see from the dark color that it's been touched a lot. It no longer "grows".}

{This stalactite has broken off because people's heads have hit it!}

{Can you spot the "Melting Skull"?}

{"Bride's Veil"~The purest formation in the cavern}

{Do YOU see the "Jellyfish"?}

{As we were driving out of Yosemite the 2nd day, Mike had just finished saying how there are probably tons of animals in the woods that you DON'T see as you drive by because it's too hard to see them as you're driving. Suddenly, Frank yells out "BEAR!!!!!". We totally thought he was joking...then we saw it way back from the road. Mike swung the car off the road and we...yup, chased the bear! Only to find out that it was a Momma bear and her cub came out right behind her! AMAZING! What are the odds?!?! It was a BEAUTIFUL sight and a wonderful end to our day!}

{After our hike to Vernal Falls, we were driving out of the park and saw a ton of cars pulled over...we were lucky enough to get a spot in the parking lot to the right (people were just stopping and parking IN THE ROAD!) and this bear was hanging out on a log! So Frank took a MILLION pictures of it...(this was before we saw the Momma & Cub!)...so here are a couple!}

{On our hike to Vernal Falls, Mike found this nice rock to climb on...so he, Meghann, Michelle and Joel climbed up the back and posed for a photo!}

{We took the shuttle a few times and Mikaela LOVED it! She saw everyone grabbing the
poles, so she had to get in on the action!}

{Diana took a picture of Meghann taking a picture!}

{Vernal Falls}

{A small fall off the side of the road!}
