Pacific Ocean near San Francisco


Text message:

Pacific Ocean!! I was wearing a million layers cause it was cold but I poked my finger in just so I would have touched the Pacific Ocean.

Too foggy to see the bridge (Golden Gate). We just stopped in the Marina District and half the girls made clover crowns.

Stanislaus wasn’t hot. A little dewey but that’s it. I’m in Yosemite right now and it is so beautiful.

Yosemite was beautiful, loved it. I wish we could have spent more time there. No fireworks out here (duh – fires!!). We just had burgers and lecture.
