Memorial Day hike
May 30, 2005




On Memorial day we crossed the Golden Gate bridge and drove another 30 min north for Stinson Beach.
There we met Hannes and Audrey for 7.2 miles of wonderful coastal hills.

About 10 minutes after the sign we saw one...

Up, up we go

Poison Oak all over the trail.
We almost made it without touching, Ulrika got some on ...hm, you know...




Lunch stop




Audrey and Hannes




Another photo-op

Lots of California Poppy

Gorgeous view over the inlet to the bay, clad in picture perfect fog.
Golden gate bridge to the left and San Francisco behind it.

Fruit break before heading downwards




Linn practises the conducting moves she learns from mom...




...and tastes dad's hat for dessert.




The part back down is called the "Ladder Trail"...

Thanks for a great hike guys!

As always a nice and well earned dinner to make the day complete, and replenish what we lost... at least.
