The *real* California giants
Earlier this month, dad flew down for some bay area adventures. We had a fun time eating Thai food in the city, hanging out in North Beach, and driving up to Marin to see the Muir Woods National Monument. Muir Woods has been on my bay area bucket list and it did not disappoint. It is quite popular, and yes, crowded even on a weekday, but on the trails you can hike for miles in near solitude. The park was named in honor of John Muir, naturalist and founder of the Sierra Club.
