Laguna Seca & Yosemite


On our way to Yosemite, we stopped by at Laguna Seca raceway. There was a club meeting on there and we spent a few minutes watching and taking pictures. We went to the famous Corkscrew corner and watched a lot of drivers getting it all wrong.
We then spent 2 wonderful days in Yosemite - a photographers paradise. You think you cannot see anything more spectacular but there always is something better around the corner. It is an awe inspiring place.
We went to the Valley floor, but it was 35 miles along windy roads from the park entrance. The views along the way were wort it though. On the way back to the hotel, we went to Glacier Point and looked down 7000 feet into the valley. If we only went to Yosemite on this trip it would have been worth it.
In the evening we went to The Narrow Gauge Inn, just near to the hotel, and had a wonderful meal. Started off with a couple of cocktails........ Jan got talking to an American couple next to us and it turns out he has a Ferrari 460 and has driven it around Laguna Seca
We had a problem with the car and had to get it replaced.
At the end of the second day we arrived back a bit earlier to the hotel and had some time in and out of the pool.
