On our first day in San Francisco we took a trip to Muirs Wood and Sausalito.
Muir Woods is north across the Golden Gate Bridge. It is situated in Marin County and is home to one of the few remaining groves of virgin Coastal Redwoods which are among the oldest and tallest trees in existence. We went along the 'Nature Trail' into the heart of a cathedral like grove. We were lucky enough to see a little fawn feeding. The trees are awe inspiring and very beautiful.
We then continued on to Sausalito a quaint little village of art galleries, shops and waterfront restaurants with views of San Francisco across the bay. The cliff-hanging cottages and the houseboat community are pure 'Californian'.

We returned early afternoon and had clam chowder at Fisherman's Wharf and then spent the afternoon riding the cable car and trolley bus around the town. We took a cable car back down to Fisherman's Wharf for a meal at a seafood restaurant right on the wharf.
