Yosemite and Mammoth

This week I spent a three days in Yosemite and Mammoth with my parents. We had such a great time and it was nice to get away from the hustle and bustle and just relax. It was also nice to spend some quality time with my parents. We drove up to Mammoth on Sunday and checked in to the gorgeous Westin hotel! It was beautiful and I took a nap in the "heavenly" bed. We had a delicious dinner at Convict Lake and then my mom and I had fun watching "Stepbrothers" together. We drove through Yosemite on Monday and went on a hike up to Vernal Falls. We also spent time exploring the Awanee hotel- which was quite a place! The best part was seeing a mama bear and two baby bears! It was so precious! We then drove back and went to dinner at Lulu's which was just soso. Unfortunately, because of the economy, not many people have been around in places like Mammoth and that was probably why the service wasn't up to par. On Tuesday morning we headed back and stopped for a second time at Shatz's bakery which is the best bakery in the entire world! They created the original sheepherder bread and it was absolutely delicious. As they say, "Carbs are in!". We then stopped at Mount Whitney and explored there for awhile. We are planning on climbing the peak next year; we'll see how that goes. We had a wonderful time and I can't wait to go back!
