A great stroll: The Golden Gate Bridge

A wonderful 1.7 mile hike is across the Golden Gate Bridge between San Francisco and Marin County California. It is especially nice in the evening. (You can get to both ends of the bridge by bus or park your car at either end.) Always take a jacket. It is almost always cooler in summer than at other times although the fog goes through you in the winter. The photo here is one I took looking south toward the city. The green area is the Presidio.  You will note to the right that the bridge is not at the most westerly part of the city. Many people believe it is. There is more to enjoy out there. I read TripAdvisor and some people are disappointed in the bridge... maybe because they think it is going to be gold and it is really red. I commuted across the bridge when getting accredited at California Pacific Medical Center and when taking youth groups to plays in the city. (We lived in Marin.)  Personally, the bridge has never disappointed me.
