Day 6 – Lodi CA to Fresno CA, via Yosemite National Park

After a particularly nasty hotel breakfast today we headed off towards
Yosemite along highway 99. Then onto 120 where we completely missed a turn
and ended up in Jamestown about 10 miles north of where we wanted to be. So
we had breakfast there and then headed back to the turnoff.
Driving towards Yosemite we noticed a
sign saying
kiwi tavern, and thought
thats weird, so we had to stop at Chinese Camp (population 150) to check out
the place. Once we noticed
the flag we had to go inside and have a chat.
It turns out that the the owner was a Kiwi expat from Gisborne who had been
living there for 12 years.
After a chat and an orange juice we continued on to Yosemite, which even
though it was pouring with rain was spectacular. We took lots of photos and
looked around the visitor centers.
After looking around there we got on highway 41 and headed south to Fresno
and got a room for the night. We went to TGIF courtesy of the some vouchers
we got as wedding presents (thanks Daschbach and Kreke).
