San Francisco (Part 3)

Monday we started of a Ghirardelli Square. It was fun and they had different shops that we browsed. We ended up at the sweets shop for some treats. I got a Chocolate Sundae that was simple and delicious!



After Ghirardelli Square we drove over to Golden Gate Bridge to be all touristy. It was great! So very windy but a lot of fun. After walking around at the visitors area we started to walk across the bridge and the wind got crazier so of course we had to let our hair down for a 'wind picture'!

























We left the bridge and headed for the woods! We had been told that we needed to go to Muir woods to see the Redwoods so we did and it was awesome! We went on a hike once paying the admission for the woods and it was lovely. I am a fan of the trees and beauty that surrounds us. Also, the trees were HUGE! It was fun to walk around on the trail that had been created and there were perfect little clovers growing all around. In all it was an awesome, unexpected addition to our trip.






After going to Muir Woods we stopped by Muir beach for a picnic dinner and the possibility of the ocean... We were in California! The beach was a good place and not too busy when we got there. After eating and changing we went and jumped in the water (for a picture of course). It was after taking some jumping pictures that we realized there were jellies on the beach. They we stranded from the tide and we decided we would observe them so using a rock we dug a hole and waited for it to fill with water before putting a jelly in the water. We weren't sure what was up with the jellies but we later found out that they were not poisonous and they were called Gooseberry Jellies. As we were driving away the fog was coming in and it was lovely!
