First Adventure to Angel Island

Here is the favorite picture from this past weekend's trip to Angel Island. It was quite a bit misty that day, which proved to be ideal for hiking up to the top. While many of the views were obscured by fog, we had fun trekking upward with a few pitstops to look at forget-me-nots or singing songs. Yes, we sang songs on the hike. Hopefully, Lily had a good birthday trip and the second day of island camping was much drier than the previous day.

When the Immigration Station is done being remodeled, I want to make another trip out and take a different hike. It sounds potentially daunting to do 4.5 miles in 4.5 hours, but breaking it down, it's not so bad. It also helps that Jen, a friend of Lily's is 8 months pregnant and makes me feel better about being a slow hiker. Though the best part is that there weren't steep inclines, which is always a bonus for everyone.
