    Friday we got up early-ish and headed over to Marin to go visit Muir Woods.  I'd never been there before and it's very, very pretty.  Go early or you'll spend more time hiking from your car to the entrance than you will in the forest.  And what a forest it is:

    Me and mom:

    Hello gorgeous!

    From there we headed over to the Pelican Inn in Muir Beach which was a good idea because it's so pretty but a bad idea because I didn't make a reservation and they were completely booked.  Note to self:

    So we headed over to Muir Beach which is super pretty:

    My second choice for lunch was Cafe Del Soul in Mill Valley which was sadly closed.  So we gave up on Marin and headed back to San Francisco and we had lunch at the Beach Chalet in Golden Gate Park.  We got a table by the window and it was great.  And no, Mr. Nick, my mamma didn't leave with a growler.  This is the view from our table:

    Our last stop was the pretty North Windmill.  Not so many flowers but still very pretty:

    We headed home and lounged about the house for the rest of the day.  Lots of fun.
