Let me tell you, when you pay Chateau d'Holy Crap prices, they reward you with wonderful, fantastic service. We pulled up around 11:00pm - and they greeted us with a wonderful plate of snacks....
... and then kept topping off our wine.
Apparently, people who stay at the Chateau like to recreate episodes of "I Love Lucy"...
Need proof this was a classy joint? We had real flowers in the loo...
Since we were so close to Yosemite, we figured it would be a shame not to go into the park while we were up there. So we decided to walk to the Swinging Bridge, via the appropriately named Swinging Bridge Trail. But first, we had to fill up the car - bet you're glad you're not living in California..
Sean and I could never be on "The Amazing Race." 
This is probably the closest we'll get to snow all year. Wait a minute... I just spent two weeks in IN and OH... Well, it's the closest Sean'll get to snow all year.
This is a river in Yosemite. I have no idea which river it is.
And that was our quick jaunt into Yosemite. It's a beautiful park. Next time, we'll try to spend an entire week up there.
