Probably the best place to see the Golden Gate Bridge is from the Marin Hills, just North of San Francisco. After we went to Muir Woods Thursday afternoon, we stopped at the Marin Hills on the way back. We were very lucky to have clear weather for viewing the bridge. Normally there are blankets of fog that cover the bridge every day. The Marin Hills are neat because they are so high that you can look down toward the bridge and you can see the everywhere from the Pacific coast to Oakland. We went to several viewpoints on the hills and took lots of pictures:
There are so many other viewpoints around the city: Treasure Island, Twin Peaks, Sausalito, and Buena Vista Park to name a few. The day we rented the car, the first thing we did was drive across the Oakland Bay Bridge to go to Treasure Island to see the view. Most of these pictures were taken from Treasure Island, but some were taken from Buena Vista Park, USF, and the de Young Museum observation tower.
We moved to Seattle in February 2008 and shared blog posts and photos during our first few years in Seattle.
