The third day !!! We had reached the final day of our stay at San Francisco !! Well indeed, we had to head back home to Tustin but there were still few more important places to be visited here. So we packed our baggages and set off on our journey early in the morning for our final trip around the city. Do you remember me telling that there's something exciting and funny about these roads of SFO ??? And bet, I really liked 'em a hell lot and woah woah woah it's the excitement you get while driving down those roads or when you go up those roads not knowing what lay down can just loosens the screws of your nerves !!! (see picture above) You might just get one of those mini feelings of going on a 6-Flags ride !!! Ooh no !!! I ain't exaggerating at all !! That's the picture above taken by me when we were inside the car ready to go down the road for one of those crazy road adventures !!
And in this photograph, please, I am not on top of any tower, but it was again of the very same road that you saw above and was taken when we were just at the edge of the road and were ready to have a great fall down !!!! Wooaoahhh !!! And that indeed was a Great Fall and one of a Steep kind, ehh !!! WOWW !! I wondered !! What a Crazy funny drive it is !!! ;-) And on the far behind could you see the huge water body ??? Well, that's the "Pacific Ocean", you see.
So with all those little adventures we had on the roads of SFO we were more excited to visit the Globe's most crookedest street called the "Lombard Street". (picture above) Ooh yes !! Do you remember me talking about that ???? Yeah, it was en route to the down town of SFO. The "Crookedest Street" indeed is supposed to be the most crookedest street of the globe. No !!! I ain't joking !! Have a look for yourself at the picture above !! So now, since we were all charged up with the small falls and fun on the roads of SFO we definitely wanted to have some more fun down this crooked street as well !! And so we drove down that street from the top and woah woah woah ....... where are we going ?????? Haa haa haa :-) believe it or not it was mischievously funny going down on those multiple "S" turns down the road !!! So after we came down that road we definitely wanted to capture some memories of this excitement so we drove back again to the top intersection of Lombard Street, parked our car and lazed around that place taking couple of snaps here and there all geared up for more craziness that awaited us for the day !!!
So after we got all tired running around the crooked street we set off for our next target place to be visited which was the "Coit Tower" which was just a few miles from the crooked steet. We hung around the coit tower and from there, also got a manageable view of the Beautiful "Bay Bridge" (picture above) as well !! The Bay Bridge is said to connect SFO with Oakland and the East Bay. We could have got a better and much beautiful view of the same in the night but unfortunately lacked time to stay back till the evening :-(Hence, after spending a considerable amount of time at Coit Tower we headed towards our next visit at the "GG Bridge". The GG Bridge again looks tremendously beautiful in the night !!! But alas !! We couldn't get the view of that too.
Ooh yes, during the drive towards the GG Bridge we happened to cross the streets again of our first venue of visit of the day and I did not want to miss that spark of opportunity, sitting inside the car, to capture this wonderful picture. What was that ??? It was again the stretch of the Lombard Street from the other end of the road !! (see picture above)
So we drove towards the GG Bridge and passed through it (picture above) reaching the end of the bridge. We parked our car at the parking space available near the bridge and roamed around that area trying to learn the beautiful architecture and getting our little brains to analyze the sublimed engineering that lay in the construction of the bridge.
Took some pictures (picture above.), had some mischiefs and walked on the pavement for quite a distance. It was a sunny day though pleasant. So after all the routine of being a visitor to a place we took our car and started driving to our next venue which was the Muir Woods. So as we were heading to our next and the final destination at SFO, we took a little diversion from the usual route and drifted a little away from the woods continuing our drive on the freeway 1 ending up on an awesome scenic drive to the Muir State Park. Ooohh dear .... I MUST confess here that of all the places that I had visited in SFO, I certainly liked Muir Woods or would I say The Muir State Park the best. During this drive when we halted at the place to capture this magnificent scene of Nature in our memories and photographs, I actually went into an oblivion and the poetic thoughts started abiding in my head for sometime. The Mountain's bottom met the Ocean and every time the waves hit the feet of the mountain I felt as if the Ocean washed off the feet a Great King of this Earth. This was one of the few imaginations I had when I had a glance of this place for the first time. NO !! This ain't an amplification at all but I am just trying to portray what exactly was going on inside my heart when I was there and then, I just couldn't defy my brain and my heart to take my eyes off this beautiful scene that nature could ever gift Man.Being all submerged in the beauty of the nature my husband and I also did not stop being adventurous and took quite many photographs sitting and standing on all the possible edges of the mountain rocks.
And here are a few photographs of this scenic place which I certainly feel is a must see.
It was truly intriguing being in a spot of this kind and overall in SFO with mind full of adventure and fun. I would say a vacation not only relaxes one's brain but also refreshes it making it more imaginative and the coercive way to look into the various aspects of life simply diminishes.
And that's why I just love vacations and until I take my next vacation and scribble and share some more of my fun with life, lemme wait till that comes .........
Love :-)
