We stayed for a few days at Samuel P. Taylor State Park, in Marin County, to explore San Francisco. Since we are not really city people, we only spent one day in the city. We drove the Jetta to Sausalito, which is across the bay from San Francisco, parked the car, and rode a bus to a stop near the Golden Gate Bridge. To get to the bridge, we had to walk next to a highway and climb over barriers. Then, we walked across the Golden Gate Bridge. The bridge, with its huge towers and cables, was very beautiful.
When we got to the other side of the bridge, we had a picnic on a bench with views of of the Golden Gate Bridge before taking a city bus to the other side of town. Then we walked through Fisherman’s Wharf to the ferry terminal, and took an extremely fast small ferry at sunset back to Sausalito. From there, we drove home, tired from our long but fun day.
