Confused


From SF, if you have a spare half day, a great trip is to go to the Muir Woods (esp if u don't have time to go all the way over to Yosemite) since you can see the giant sequoia trees.. we drove down there and even the drive was amazing, going from the sunshine of SF to the microclimate of the cool misty woods through winding mountain roads.. they hav park ranger types to give you a tour and some history of the place, was really worthwhile..

also, stop by in Sausalito on the way back to SF for a lovely seaside town where you can see the island where a lot of Hollywood stars (eg Brad Pitt) have homes..

if you are driving from LA to SF or vice versa, be sure to take the ocean route for some of the most spectacular scenery in the world (you’ll be driving through the stunning Big Sur area) and try to stop off in Monterey or beautiful Carmel beach if you can..
