I wish I knew how to put all the pretty flowers on the post, I would certainly give you a bouquet!! You were very kind to do that MichelleY. I will call them myself, when the times align. It is 7pm here and 1a.m. in California at the minute, and with me working full-time, it is trickier to get the time difference to work...but I will definitely try for the Lodge at the Falls, then the Mountain View as a back-up. I will let you all know.
Thanks everyone.... you're priceless.

HEY LADIES!! All booked! .2 nights at Yosemite Lodge at the Falls... for Jan 4-6th. I was able to do it online as their system is working just fine, as opposed to Mountain View's . How exciting!

Can't thank you all enough for your input... xx

Now I will look into the driving directions from San Fran, and all should be rosy.

In January I would consider taking 140 into the park. Comparatively speaking it is the "low road" and the road conditions have a better chance of being clear.
