When you tell a local how excited you were to drive across the Golden Gate Bridge, and to see this manmade marvel from the cliff side, they look at you a little sideways. They get it, that it is special, and that people travel to San Francisco just to see this bridge. But it appears they are not sure what to think of all the excitement that it generates. Perhaps they have become numb to the bridge’s presence in their lives. We can relate as there are days when I take the mountains around us for granted. Never the less it was a grand time and is now checked off our wish-list.
The drive along the California coastal Highway 1 was incredibly beautiful. The Ice Plants shimmering in the sun, showing off their white yellows and purples added just the right balance of color against the blues and teals of the sky and ocean waves.
Road trips with my fella are one of my favorite pastimes.
