Muir Woods: California Vaca Part 1

I'll be honest, I'm a bit overwhelmed with all the pictures I took during vacation. I narrowed down my Muir Woods shots from 60 pictures to 13 to share so as to not bore you with photo after photo of tall trees. That's pretty much what this post is anyway, but still. Better 13 than 60 right?

This was our first big stop in California after landing. I was running on a whopping 2 hours of sleep and definitely feeling it so this day was a bit hazy. But totally beautiful nonetheless. First, we got a bit turned around searching for food in Marin after crossing the Golden Gate but randomly found a Super Duper burger (which was delicous btw). Lemonade made with brown sugar. What? Brilliant and delicious. Super yummy stuff and after that, we were off to make our way into the hills for Muir Woods.

When we were first planning our trip to San Francisco and Yosemite, I honestly had never heard of Muir Woods. It's a fairly small park, but beautiful and quite well known especially for being one of the filming spots of Star Wars. That's all I had to mention to Grant and he was on board ;) Plus seeing that episode of Parks and Rec where Leslie and Ben were wandering around in these woods made us extra anxious to go. It did not disappoint.

P.S. That car at the end was our rental. YAY for upgrades ;)

By the look of these photos I'm pretty sure the other 47 you didn't share with us are probably amazing as well. I should also mention that I use your monthly calendar every month so thank you for that <3
