We could see sea lions playing in the waves under the bridge...
We cruised around Sausalito- this is the view from the north end of the bridge....the captain said, "It must be 75 degrees out." When we stopped at a stoplight, a man driving a truck next to me had his window down so I asked if he had a the temperature in his truck...."It's 75," he confirmed!
We stopped at a historical marker site which looked like a mini castle. We watched the bay and took in the views and sunshine...
Then we headed back to town to line up for the ferry back to The City.....we sat on top in the open air...the views of Alcatraz, Angel Island and the bridge were incredible....
We pulled all the way into the pier and right past the sea lions sunning on themselves....see they haven't entirely left as reported on the news, they have just decreased their population here...
The last part of the ride was the most intense...past Pier 39 and all the tourist spots...plus sharing the road with the trolleys and buses...and a tourist wiped out on her rental bike just shy of taking me out...she was okay but I wasn't too at ease on the cobblestone street on my road bike.
We stopped for a bathroom break and a huge freighter was coming under the gate....then we headed up the hill to our car....it was only a 20.59 mile ride but it was amazing.Happy Super Bowl Sunday!

Gorgeous pictures!!
But, 75?! You can keep it! It's been snowing again since last night here. LOVE IT!
I agree with CT Girl, this is January and it shouldn't be in the 70s (or 80s at my house). We have PLENTY of time to be warm, it would be nice to have some cool weather to wear jeans and sweaters and boots.
Looks like a great day for a ride though!
