San Fransisco June 1

The campground we are staying at offers a tour of San Fransisco so we took it today.
We put Mickey into the doggie daycare and he seemed happy to meet all the other dogs.
The tour is on a small bus, there were only 13 of us in all. It was great to relax and have someone else do the driving as well as offering lots of interesting information along the way.
It took about 40 min. to get to the Golden Gate bridge and it was so foggy we could only see a portion of it when we stopped to get out.
We spent about 30 min. there, got a chance to walk out on the bridge and see the information center.
After that we drove all around the city with stops at several places.Got dropped off at the top of a cable car run then picked up at the bottom.
All in all a great way to see a lot in the short period of time we are here.
We made another stop underneath the bridge on the way home, the fog had lifted and the views were great.
Got back to the campground around 6pm , then went to pick up the dog. He was tired and seemed to have had a good time.
We picked up some barbecued ribs and potatoe salad from a local place that does it's own slow smoked barbecue.
When we got back home we found that the quiet 1/4 full campground we had left was almost full with the pool full of kids and people everywhere.
Glad to be leaving for Yosemite in the morning!
