Photo Essay: Yosemite National Park, California

I had occasion to visit Yosemite National Park in California recently. The only downside to seeing the park in fall is that it’s quite dry, which means the famous waterfalls are almost nonexistent. You have to be there during the spring to see the falls in all their glory. Still, there’s plenty to love about Yosemite year-round.

Here are some of my favorite photos.

That is, of course, until – amazingly – fantasy became reality, on board the luxury barge La Belle Epoque, the European Waterways vessel that cruises the Burgundy Canal, in the heart of one of France’s premier wine regions.
