Yosemite Visitors Center, Ansel Adams Gallery

After the tour and the kids getting their junior ranger badges, we walked through the visitors center, which has very good displays explaining how Yosemite was formed (short version: igneous rock from magma became granite, tectonic plate movement pushed granite to surface).

We walked through the Ansel Adams Gallery - beautiful pictures. We saw the film "Spirit of Yosemite" in the theatre, then had a delicious pizza for dinner. We are now headed back to Curry Village to get the keys to our new digs tonight, hopefully a shower for everyone, followed by a better night's sleep. ;)

Yosemite is amazing, huge, and cannot be seen completely in a week's time, much less two days. But, we have done what we could, and hopefully the kids will have a chance to come back someday, maybe with their own kids.
