Take a Hike!

We had a really nice Sunday afternoon driving up north of San Francisco just over the Golden Gate Bridge to Muir Woods. Muir Woods has beautiful hiking trails among the redwood trees.
Muir Woods is not only known for the redwood trees but it is the location where parts of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi was filmed!
It was Hadley's first time in the baby bjorn carrier facing forwards and she LOVED it! She went two miles in her socks! She held onto daddy's fingers the entire time and TALKED and laughed a lot to everyone passing by.
It was a warm sunny day in the 60's but the thick canopy of the trees blocks the sunlight and it appears dark and cool...
Hadley loved to look up at the trees...
Some of the redwood trees have natural caves that you can stand in. These caves are formed from fires over the years which start when lightening strikes...
Hadley has given this adventure with mommy and daddy two "thumbs up!"
