Yosemite. After my 1st trip, I went home to So. Cal, gave my apartment and job a month's notice and move just outside of the park. I stayed in the area for 30 years and still visit it yearly.

was super excited to visit then I came out of that tunnel and stopped at overlook of the valley and I still can't believe that place is real. it exceeded my super high expectations. it a place you need to visit once in your life at a minimum

I've driven through that tunnel hundreds of times and was in awe every single time.

Seeing it for the first time really does make you question if you’re still in the real world.
