This Holiday

This holiday- Winter 09-10, my fam, the dogs and I headed to the famous national park: Yosemite! We love this place because its close by to our town and the views are spectacular. Its definitely a winter wonderland with all the snow on the beautiful mountains. Being in SoCal we don't get snowed in like the east coast. Instead we have to head for highlands like Yosemite Mountains to get the snow action. This place is also dog-friendly, which is rare to find among the national parks. So our dogs, Lotus(Maltese) and Amigo(Beagle), go on all hikes with us and love to jump in the snow. Its definitely a fun family trip for us.
So enuf said...here are some pictures from this trip. There was definitely less snow than last year (less rain this year) and so you can see lot of difference in my pictures from last December and I def did not own a Canon classic 5D back then :P - Yosemite Winter 08-09.
