DisneyDan goes places

[DisneyDan24]

I went a couple places on the weekend and figured I'd post some pictures.
First, on friday I went to San Gregorio Beach.

Saturday, I went to Golden Gate Recreational Area. It's basically a defunct Anti Ship base from WWII. They built large guns and bunkers in to the mountains just outside of the Golden Gate across from San Francisco. It was rather foggy, which is how the bay area weather is.

A couple shots of the Golden Gate bridge.






Here's where one of the guns was mounted.


More lookouts and other "Batterys" and barracks.



Point Bonita lighthouse.


This tunnel was used to bring the guns in since big trucks couldn't make it using the narrow winding roads.

You'll have a great time. I love San Francisco. Make sure you go to Alcatraz, it might not be open much longer.

Really?? I have a 6 and 9 year old, so I was thinking about NOT going there. I don't think they'd like it. I may have to send my husband by himself

Re: DisneyDan goes places

I heard that they might be closing it due to the safety of the buildings, and the lack of funds to retrofit them.

Re: DisneyDan goes places

If you're taking kids to the bay you should go to the Exploritorium. Great science museum where they let you play with all the experiments! I used to have a blast there as a kid. Have yet to go to Alcatraz though. We're planning a trip there with my in-laws after the wedding though.
