California Trip, Wednesday

Wednesday we decided to go back down to San Francisco  because it was going to be the only sunny day of the trip. We wanted to see San Francisco in the sunshine. This picture above, I think was taken at the end of Tuesday , when it wasnt raining.  It looks really nice on my computer but of course when you load it to your blog it seems to loose something.

We got there early but not early enough to see the sunrise. We stopped at this park that is high up and over looks the Golden Gate Bridge.

We road our bikes down that road under the bridge on Sunday.


 There is a beach down there. It was high tide right now so we decided to come back later tonight to go down to that beach.




We left here and went to another park, I think it was called Crissy Field. This is where we took the picture below.


Then my daughter was to see the Full House , house. So we went there.



I guess these home owners got tired of being the  "Full House" house and painted it, to loose the effect.  My daughter was very upset.

Then we went to the park where the film the opening scene.

 We parked here in the white car. Lou is talking to a guy who worked on several shows, can remember which ones. (Not a actor)

Some nice guy , who lived on the street, first asked us if we spoke English. LOL  Then told us to turn our wheels the way the rest of the cars have their wheels. The parking police come buy all the time and write 80.00 tickets for people who dont have their wheels turned in.

Then we went over to the this beach and there is a restaurant called the Cliff House. I wanted to eat lunch there.


The Cliff House is that white building to the right.  Isnt this beautiful.
What you cant see to the right, inside the rock area, is a guy taking a bath with the sand and then sometimes water. Not sure if he was living there.  And then later and another guy went to the bathroom near the rocks.







No sure what this wind mill is about. But its neat looking.




Then we had more time, so we hiked up this hill.


This is another park, I guess.

This is what is at the top of the hill.



Cool looking trees.

Then on the other side of the road, it another park or maybe its all the same park. Who knows.








After this park, we went to eat in the Cliff House.

I cant remember what we did after this.

Then we went back to the park above the Golden Gate Bridge. We tried to walk down the the beach, but it was getting dark and we turned around. (I think it was getting dark there starting at 4:30pm.)

You can see the beach down there.

We stayed here until sunset. So did a lot of other people.  The place was packed!!!  Lou dropped me and Stephanie off and went off to another area.



 I saw this guy walk up this "path", and it didnt look to hard. So I had Stephanie and I walk up it. Ooops, it was steep. We shouldnt have done it. Lucky we didnt fall.


I took this picture from the car, while we were waiting in a huge line to leave the park.  The line moved up one car, but we didnt move because I was trying to take the picture. The person behind us got pissed and started hooking the horn. You couldnt go anywhere, there was still a huge line. There was one car length in front of us. What is wrong with people. Ugh!!

Those photos are incredible. I'd love to visit that area. Looks like you did a lot of exploring and walking. Your feet must have been sore!
