This is me driving through San Francisco. I believe this to be the first ever photograph of me driving a car.
|
13:13:27
Chie had the camera and was snapping away at random quite happily! Possibly she was trying to get the street name here - Van Ness.
|
13:22:39
Approaching the Golden Gate bridge... this was very exciting!
|
|
|
|
|
|
13:22:48
|
13:23:25
|
13:23:54
Chie was also very excited about there being NO TOLL Northbound.
|
|
|
|
|
|
13:25:26
Actually driving on the famous bridge now - this was surprisingly fun!
|
13:25:35
|
13:25:40
|
|
|
|
|
|
13:25:44
|
13:25:51
|
13:26:29
|
|
|
|
|
|
13:26:32
|
13:26:38
So this would be the second ever picture of me driving.
|
13:26:45
|
|
|
|
|
|
13:32:01
We stopped just after crossing the bridge to take in the view - here's a nice one of Chie...
|
13:32:31
...some shots of the city as seen from across the bay...
|
13:32:38
|
|
|
|
|
|
13:33:19
...and a nice shot of the pair of us taken by a kind stranger.
|
13:35:09
Another shot looking out across the bay.
|
14:33:55
We got a bit lost shortly after venturing North of the bridge, so decided to come to this mall to buy a map, and get something for lunch.
|
|
|
|
|
|
14:57:55
Outside the mall.
|
15:42:24
Out in the middle of nowhere we came across The Marin French Cheese Co.
|
15:45:26
I enjoyed this sign quite a lot.
|
|
|
|
|
|
16:29:15
I think this is entering Point Reyes National Seashore now - some blurry pictures of cows!
|
16:29:27
More vague scenery taken from the car.
|
16:35:22
Chie on one of the beaches we visited (Francis Drake?).
|
|
|
|
|
|
16:37:30
Nice blue sky but it was actually a bit chilly on the coast.
|
16:37:44
|
16:43:11
Classic me-and-Chie self portrait.
|
|
|
|
|
|
17:12:32
This is another beach (South beach perhaps) which we hung around at for a short time while we were waiting for the road to the lighthouse to reopen.
|
17:13:33
|
17:14:10
|
|
|
|
|
|
17:14:15
|
17:15:47
|
17:15:56
|
|
|
|
|
|
17:18:28
Chie got a lot of sand in her shoes here!
|
17:54:24
Walking out to the lighthouse.
|
17:57:54
Apparently the jawbones of a whale.
|
|
|
|
|
|
17:58:22
Strange rock formations here.
|
17:58:31
...and some weird little plants.
|
17:59:03
...and there's the lighthouse down there.
|
|
|
|
|
|
17:59:22
...zoomed in a bit.
|
17:59:29
|
17:59:43
I found this quite an interesting subject, although unfortunately the lighting was a bit of a challenge.
|
|
|
|
|
|
18:00:33
|
18:01:31
|
18:01:40
|
|
|
|
|
|
18:06:46
A very windswept tree.
|
18:06:54
|
18:14:15
There are some kind of deer in this shot, although possibly not all that easy to see.
|
|
|
|
|
|
18:43:42
Back in the car now...
|
18:43:59
|
19:08:29
|
|
|
|
|
|
19:08:34
Can see the moon here.
|
19:14:42
A small colony of seals just across an inlet from the road (I think this was Highway 1 already).
|
19:15:07
Chie with the seals in the background.
|
|
|
|
|
|
19:24:32
Views of the sunset, seen from the Californian coast (Highway 1 to be precise).
|
19:26:27
|
19:26:45
Chie with the sun setting behind her.
|
|
|
|
|
|
19:26:55
Can see the moon again here.
|
19:27:48
Our car in the little layby we'd parked in to watch the sunset.
|
19:28:20
...more sunset pictures...
|
|
|
|
|
|
19:28:44
...and the moon again!
|
19:28:54
Chie basking in it all (from the comfort of the car).
|
19:29:22
|
|
|
|
|
|
19:29:39
|
19:30:12
|
19:32:00
Pink sky in the distance, seen from Highway 1.
|
|
|
|
|
|
19:32:27
More of highway 1.
|
20:45:50
Dinner in Sausalita - this was Chie's seafood stew type thing.
|
20:45:58
....and my pasta dish which was somewhat less interesting.
|
|
|
|
|
|
20:46:21
Chie digging in.
|
21:06:23
Attempt to get a picture of the waterfront from the restaurant we were in.
|
21:28:31
Odd flowers at the restaurant.
|
|
|
|
|
|
21:28:42
The front of the restaurant.
|
21:52:46
Eeek!
|
21:53:00
Heading back over the Golden Gate bridge.
|
|
|
|
21:53:12
...and another...
|
