City by the Bay

Connie and I spent a couple of days visiting Heidi and Jennifer in the bay area this week. I got some snaps that seem worth adding.

Sorry for the slight distortion on this stitched photo. The bridge deck at the bottom of the photo is actually much flatter.

Connie and Jennifer are on that ferry in the bay on their way to meet Heidi. I will catch up and then dinner in the city.

The next day we spent a few hours at Cronkhite beach. I had time to do a little hiking and what a beautiful day it was.

I hiked up to the the Battery Townsley built in 1938 to defend San Francisco.

Now that's what I call a gun!

If you ever get the chance to hike up and have a look it's well worth it.

The view from up there isn't half bad either. Just behond the rock point is the mouth of the San Francisco Bay and on the far left edge of the photo you can see the Golden Gate Bridge.
