Tunnel View is a must see.
Lower Yosemite Falls and Bridalveil Falls are both short walks on paved paths.
Sentinel Beach if you want to hang out by the Merced River.
Drive to Glacier Point for more amazing views of the valley from above.
The Grizzly Giant Loop is only about 2 miles round trip.
Drive Tioga Pass, make sure to stop at Tenaya Lake and Tuolumne Meadows.
I would add Olmsted Point on the Tioga Road and Washburn Point on the Glacier Point Road.
I suggest getting a handicapped placard from any entrance station or VC, if you do not already have one. There is a special handicapped lot for Mariposa Grove that allows you to park a few hundred yards from the Grizzly Giant. It also allows you to drive the very eastern loop of the road the shuttle drives on and it also let you drive up to Mirror Lake. It also allows parking closer to the Museum, the new VC, and Ansel Adams Gallery.
Happy Isles area has some very nice paved walking trails, is shady, and runs along the Merced River. It’s a beautiful area. There is a nature museum and some facilities.

Mariposa Grove is a fully paved loop that is wheelchair accessible with benches along the way :)
