Golden Gate Bridge

Sunday morning we woke to a totally sunny day, what a difference from the midwest. Surrounded by sun, palm trees, and 60 degree weather, if not for the wind we would have been in shorts and t-shirts.

We bussed it over to the Presidio and caught a shuttle to the Golden Gate Bridge. After the obligatory photo ops at the Welcome Center, we started our hike across the bridge. It was truly an amazing journey on one of the modern worlds architectural wonders.

The sample cable consisting of thousands of 1/4" steel wires once bound together is over three feet in diameter. The wind on the walk across was sometimes fierce but it was worth the effort. The view back at the city was awesome, of course at that moment my camera batteries where done. After a quick stop back at the Welcome Center for fresh juice for my camera, we hoped on the 28 bus back to the city for our next stop - AT&T Park
