Description A little higher in the Yosamite park is Lake Tenaya. It was quite a challenge for MsRoza and I to get there. We are both deathly afraid of heights.

Love the composition, the scenery and the fact that you pushed yourselves so hard.

Another poster to keep you tranquil.

LOL. You got to see me and heights first hand mate. A quick hose out and the hire car was fine.

I admire your stupidity in even attempting the area.
But you notice that nothing actually happened that was really to do with heights - except you got some great pics.
Of course I seem to push the limits with my own stupidity and stand just 6 inches on the wrong side of edges.

Ooh I just adore the sparkling water! The shallowness and the glittering sunlight on the rocks. It looks so tranquil! It's so wonderfully blue. And I'm one for fearing heights as well, but it's so worth the short!

Thanks Morgannna. You have no idea how much I poopped my pants. I was making all sorts of excuses to stay at this spot for a while longer, just to avoid the drive back down the mountains. Oh, the shame..

Yet I like flying.

LMAO. Me too! One of my most favourites was a flight in a helicopter over a glacier in New Zealand. I thought I would fill my pants, but I loved it.
