I had been wanting to come to Yosemite for many years and I was hoping it would be with our parents so they could also experience this for the first time. Fortunately, it all worked out and we were able to plan this trip for Emma’s first birthday week in October 2022 along with my parents and in-laws. We rented a large van through Turo so we could all fit comfortably in one vehicle and my husband and I took turns driving six-plus hours overnight so we could take advantage of a full first day enjoying the resort we stayed at. For reference, we left San Diego on Wednesday night and arrived at Bass Lake/Yosemite on Thursday around 9 a.m.
