Pt. Reyes (Reprise)

Well, Ricardo and I returned to the scene of our earlier storm drama to make another attempt at a lovely Pt. Reyes vacation. I'm happy to report that this time we were entirely successful. Gorgeous sunny yet cool weather, pleasant fellow weekenders at the breakfast table each morning, scrumptious food, just a delightful time all round.

As usual I have some pictures for your viewing pleasure. The one of the two of us is on Ricardo's camera and is not available yet. Here are the scenic ones. Enjoy!



The iconic Northern Californian Coast shot. This I believe is near Bodega Bay.



A beached boat in Tomales Bay. You can't see it at this size, but the name is "Point Reyes"



Another popular shot, looking down all 303 steps to the Pt. Reyes Lighthouse. They had to put it further down the cliff to be under the usual fog bank. They claim those steps are like a thirty story building. I don't believe it. I think it may be the right number of steps for 30 stories, maybe, but the steps are so shallow it only amounts to nine or ten stories in height. Oh, and that 303 figure does not include a long sloping section where there are no steps, just the paved path. So they do fit in a little more height that way.
