Southwest part 5: From Yosemite to Lake Tahoe

Leaving Yosemite Valley, we drove through Sierras with the view of mountains...



...lakes...

... and, finally, Lake Tahoe


The Emerald Bay with Fannette Island in view




We actually stupidly hoped to swim, but the water was freezing. Nothing to scare the geese though
