Day 5: Golden Gate Bridge
Started off by walking around Treasure Island and spent some time by the beach. Chasing Canadian geese, taking pictures, etc
Took a few busses to get to the Golden Gate Bridge and, no big deal, but I got my Upass to work on SF public transit. Lol.
Got a text from Mum with phone numbers of a bunch of relatives and we ended up getting through to John Finbar. We planned to meet up with him at 5:30pm. In the meantime we walked along the beach away from the bridge.
We were picked up by John Finbar at the Palace of Fine Arts and he gave us a great road tour around the city. We went across the Golden Gate Bridge, had some excellent views, and were blown around by crazy strong wind.
Our next stop was Golden Gate Park, where we walked around Stow Lake – a circular donut lake encircling the park.
Last stop was Yerba Buena – the natural part of Treasure Island (the rest is man-made). We had a great view of the Bay Bridge and downtown SF around sunset.
