Golden Gate Bridge


Tuesday May 22nd: We hooked up this morning and drove out to Rt 1 to cross over to US-101 and head north once again. Traffic on US-101 wasn't too bad this morning as we drove up through San Jose and Sunnyvale toward San Francisco. We just stayed with US-101 to the south end of the Golden Gate Bridge as we wanted to cross it. Downtown SF was a little hairy as the road is multi lane, but the lanes are quite narrow. Stayed with it and passed the trolleys, through the park and under the tunnel then came out and entered onto the Golden Gate. I hadn't realized the the "Golden" Gate is painted red. Pretty view from the top with a LOT of people walking or riding bikes across the bridge. It was cold and windy and some of them looked pretty miserable. Drove on up to Cloverdale, CA KOA to see some of the Sonoma Valley wineries. The campground was kind of rough, but we enjoyed watching a little fawn wander out of the woods and stand next to the trailer one morning before wandering off. The next morning a wild turkey wandered into the same place and looked around for awhile.
