sv Andiamo III

We've been in the San Francisco Bay area now for about a week. Andiamo has been tied to a ball in front of the Sausalito Yacht Club with great views all around. Thanks to the great club members here for being so generous and welcoming. We are thoroughly enjoying our stay.

On Sunday, the 29th?, Tami and I decided to take a long walk and go see the famed Golden Gate Bridge. We set out on foot early Sunday morning before the touristy weekend crowd and headed towards the bridge. We walked through Fort Baker (Golden Gate National Recreation Area) and made a quick stop at the Presidio Yacht Club/Travis Marina. We finally made it to the north end of the bridge and walked across and back. What a great walk we had together. After a short break on the San Fran side, we headed back eager to find a good place to eat lunch.

We returned to the Presidio Yacht club and ate a nice burger at the small grill there. We savored the beer and views of the great bridge. We finally made it home around 1300 and rested our tired legs. All said and done, we walked a little over 10 miles. It was a great day.
