Las obras se retrasaron inesperadamente y ya tenía mis billetes de avión comprados por lo que decidí igualmente ir, no ha sido lo que esperaba en un principio ya que el Rancho no tenía animales, ni piscina utilizable pero en todo momento Kendal y su familia intentaron que viviera una experiencia lo más agradable posible y les estoy muy agradecida! Durante mi estancia visitamos Bass Lake y Yosemite en más de una ocasión, todo digno de ver!
