We leave the San Remo heading for Lombard Street. We zig zag our way to the crooked-est street in the world. We approach from the bottom and receive cheers as we head to the top. It’s an exciting ride, people yelling and taking photos all the way down. At the bottom more cheers! What fun! We cross the Golden Gate Bridge and head north. We decide to visit the Petrified Forest, huge rock trees that are millions of years old and the world's largest specimens. About as exciting as petrified trees can be, but to get back to Petaluma we took the PCH 1, Pacific Coast Highway, which WAS exciting!
It’s a beautiful day, blue sky, cool breeze and the awesome ocean and rocks! We stop at shell beach, not so may shells, and hike down the cliffs. Oli and I both love this part of the world. A little lunch with sea gulls at Bodega Bay (where Hitchcock filmed 'The Birds') and then on to Petaluma, CA., a town established in the 1800’s that still has a lot of the old town style. A grand old bank building on the corner now houses a seed company, featuring non-genetically altered seeds. 'Heirloom seeds.' Also some really cool book stores and toy shops.
Then off to the farm to visit our friends, Jeffery and Kimball. They live in Petaluma where Rameses the Great Hemotep Kitty Uncommon, greets us at the top of the drive.
