Tomorrow begins National Park Week in the U.S. meaning admission to all National Parks is free through the 29th.

Coffee shop owners in the Netherlands have gone to court in attempt to block new goverment laws that would prevent the sale of marijuana to foreign visitors. The ban is scheduled to take place in southern Netherlands on May 1 and the rest of the country in January of next year.

We took advantage of National Parks Week yesterday to visit a great, classic park, Yosemite, during sunny, unseasonably warm weather. Do note that if you have survived enough travels to have reached the age of 62, it will ALWAYS be National Parks Week for you, since NPS now offers for $10 a LIFETIME PASS!!
