Yosemite Trip

As I promised, here's one of the pictures taken by my sister when I was in Yosemite. This is the view coming from Glacier point, which is at about the same elevation as the half dome. It was very chilly over there for this time of the year, and as you can see, there is still snow at the top of some of the mountains.

While we were at the top of the mountain taking pictures of the waterfalls, I made a bet with my sister that I would be able to stand at the bottom of the waterfall without getting myself killed by the force of the water. My sister didn't believe me. So, I told her to wait there for 30 minutes for me to drive to the valley and stand under the waterfall. Once I got to the bottom, I waved my arms violently to signal that I was there, and at that moment, she took the picture of me, as shown here:


Picture of me standing at the
bottom of the waterfall.
Can you spot me there?

Thanks for this bet, I did not have to shell out any money from my pocket to cover the cost of the cabin there during the weekend!
