Cheap hotel recommendations in the Yosemite National Park, California:
Yes, I didn't go until I was in my 30's too. I agree it is an amazing place. How was your camping experience? I heard about the bear attacks this Summer, were you concerned? When I filmed the bear by the side of the road, there was a Ranger close by telling people to get into their cars. I just ignored him and grabbed my camera, in that was pretty stupid, bears can be unpredictable. But it was one of those moments I couldn't pass up.
