It's not Gold

It's actually International Orange! I'm talking about the color of the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. Not sure if that is a common knowledge or not. I knew it wasn't really gold, thought it was kinda rust colored or something close to orange. Anyways, this is the second of probably several posts about my first trip to San Francisco, California.

My husband has a high school friend that lives in the Bay Area. He texted him and arranged to meet. Tony drove us to the other side of the bridge to the top of the hill where one can view the Golden Gate Bridge at a higher elevation.

The following day, we bought tickets for a 2-day hop-on hop-off tour bus ride to the various tourist spots in San Francisco. Part of the stops are the two other viewing points of the bridge. One before crossing the bridge on the San Francisco side and the other across the bridge from the Marin County. I highly recommend crossing the bridge either by walking, biking, or as we did, riding an open-top bus. Awesome experience! Dress warmly though.


Have a great week!

Been to CA but never had a chance to see that Bridge up close and personal aside from seeing it beautifully lighted at night.
Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful bridge. It reminds me of the bridge we crossed in Florida.
