A Scenic Ride Through San Francisco Bay Area
Many thanks to Gary & Wendy for arranging a wonderful drive. We met at the Sunrise Café in Pacifica and had a wonderful breakfast meeting up with some other BAMA members including our newest members Russ and Alex Daley in their green NA.
Everyone signed in and at driver’s meeting Gary passed out directions and a driving map of our route. We headed out towards the Golden Gate Bridge and had a very interesting and scenic drive through the city. Some native Californians had not been in some of the parts we drove through. We drove past some beautiful homes, surfers and many people walking along the bay were enjoying the lovely weather.
We pulled off into a parking lot so the last few cars could catch up before we drove across the Golden Gate. Along the route we saw some people enjoying the drive in the little yellow sightseeing cars that weren’t much smaller than our Miatas.
Our next stop was Fort Cronkhite for a planned picnic and brief Board Meeting. There we met some difficulty finding a parking space as there was a road race and a surfing event taking place. However, we can be creative with our smaller cars and managed to find spaces and a couple of picnic tables for lunch. We had a lively board meeting, minutes will be posted once approved.
From Fort Cronkhite we drive into Sausalito for dinner. After breakfast and a picnic lunch we thought we might not be hungry but the food at Salito’s was so good we could not resist plates of shrimp, fish & chips, fish sandwiches, and some of us even had dessert.
It was a great day, lovely weather, scenic views, successful board meeting, great food and even better company. Thanks again Gary for leading a fabulous drive.
