Idling in Mariposa

I am still in Mariposa, CA waiting on parts to arrive and more importantly, fully recovering from my various physical maladies. These tendon issues certainly take a bit more time to heal than sore muscles. I did visit Yosemite yesterday for a quick, though incredible tour. Thankfully, there is public transportation (YART) in the area that runs from Mariposa (and other areas) to Yosemite.
The one striking feature about the park is that everything is huge- the elevation of the rock features, the rock faces, the rocks by the side of the road, the waterfalls, the giant sequoias, etc. It is all pretty unreal and some of the views (like Tunnel View) simply look fake, like a movie set background. Additionally, the grand scale of the rock features distorted my sense of distance and they seem closer and smaller than they actually are. I look forward to cycling through the park and also getting into the higher areas on Tioga Pass Road (Route 120 West).
