We made an early departure from Yosemite so we could spend the day in San Francisco. We really wanted to spend more time in SF and had planned it that way, but with our time constraints, it didn't work that way. We spent our time there at Baker Beach, just south of the Golden Gate Bridge, in traffic, and wandering around the streets.

| What is this? I don't remember. Something that we saw in between Yosemite and SF. :) |
We were pretty surprised at how relaxed the city was. While we sat in some traffic, even that wasn't too terrible, and once we got out of that area and further west, it was a really interesting place. Baker Beach was beautiful, even if it was fairly cold and windy.

| The beach had a few owners who had brought their dogs, who played in the sand and the ocean. So cute. |

| Braving the cold wind to hang out at the beach. You might ask, why don't we flip it the right way? Because we can't figure it out. |
We ate at a little Mediterranean place called Truly Mediterranean where we had shawerma, falafel, and baklava- SO delicious. We sat right outside the little shop and people-watched while we ate. Afterwards, we walked a few blocks down the road to check out a little used bookstore and took it easy.

| Falafel and Shawerma! |

| Baklava. We saved it for later, but it didn't even make it out of town. |
Then, we drove across the iconic bridge. Ok, fine. We drove across it three times. Whatever. It was our trip and we were excited about it. :)
For the night, we planned to sleep in a casino parking lot, but were kicked out because we weren't customers. Oops! :) We found a little outlet to crash for a few hours before we continued north.
