A Golden Opportunity

A Golden opportunity

One of the main attractions for me if not the one thing I wanted to see in California was the Golden Gate Bridge. I had seen it on television, in magazine photos, on people’s walls hanging in frames and in numerous picturesque books for many years. Now I would finally get to see this man made wonder of the world with my own eyes. There was one problem when we got there however. Well other than the fact we had to pay five dollars at the toll booth was the infamous fog that covered the Bay area that day. The day after we left we contemplated going back to see the bridge in broad daylight. Weather permitting, we still decided to head toward Yosemite.
