Nor Cal Activities

We took a brief trip up to the Bay Area over the weekend and we had a great time. We started in Sacramento and visited Erin's new apartment in downtown Sacramento.
Alana had never been to the Jelly Belly factory in Fairfield so we stopped there for a quick, "sweet" tour.
It was a lovely day, so we continued onto Point Reyes and did some hiking there.
The winds weren't too bad so we also hiked down to the Point Reyes lighthouse. It must have been a very desolate, lonely place when access to this area was limited in the 1800's.
Sunset over the ocean at the Marin Headlands.
A view of a freighter entering the San Francisco Bay.
Mom and Dad went hiking on the beach around sunset.
The following day, we tried to do some hiking in the Headlands area but rain kept us from going too far.
After Brad left to head back to So Cal, Steve arrived from So Cal. It was a rainy day, so we stayed inside the Marin Headlands Hostel and played games and watched movies.
The next morning, the sky started to clear and we did some more hiking.
