After the whole cloudy work days, San Fransico welcomes the Sunshine on Saturday, but I still waked up at noon. How can I miss this perfect Sunshine? So my friend and I went to the Muir Woods National Monument for hiking.
No matter Freeway 101 or 280 to Golden Gate Bridge direction is always crowded. We took almost 1 hour and half for driving and 15 minutes for parking!
Muir Woods National Monument is a ancient Redwood Forest conservation area.This land was purchased by a couple of businessman for protecting the last stands of uncut redwoods at beginning of 20th century, and then, they donate to the federal government for better protection. Although more than one hundred years has gone, the government still do his best for keeping this land in orginal status.
Can you image that there is a so integrated ancient forest neayby San Franciso downtown by driving just in 30 minutes? Yes, here is. Several months ago, when the former govrnor Schwarzenegger was stepped down, I have questioned his political achievement is nothing. Although I still believe his is a ineptitude officer today, but he really enacted series of policies about environment’s improvment and protection. It is very impressive event that CA’s governement assigned the Kyoto Protocol(《京都協議書》) which about reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions but US federal government’s President Gorge W Bush refused in 2006.
….It seems digressing topic too much…OK, I come back the redwoods and this perfect afternoon. After hiking, we drove to a small city nearyby the monument. Because I bought a cup of great taste frappucci in a small coffee shop last year, that is the best flavor I have ever had, the baked coffee beans was blended with iceberg、coffee and milk, so you can see the granule in the cup, it taste a little bit bitter, I really love it! Then, we found a burger resturant which adverise they have prized burger, I tried but i don’t like. Maybe it just isn’t my dish!
I will go to San Diego during Memorial Day, I miss ocean! I want to Dive! I love Foods! I will update my blog when i come back ASAP, I promise!
