Sausilito and SF Bay Bridge at Night

Downtown Sausilito is like a lot of other quaint towns around the bay area.
Great little shop, art and photo galleries, and of course fantastic eateries.
The day was beautiful, so the streets were hoppin!

This was a great little Italian kitchen and wine shop.
I could have spent an hour here, but made myself leave.

Ate on the waterfront, restaurant was called Horizons.
As you can see the meal was as pretty as it was good.
Shrimp, lobster, mussels, clams, and crab.
With a good clam chowder and Gordon Biersch, who could ask for more!

There was a glass wall between the dining area and the bay- guess this little guy decided it wasn't fair. He wanted his share as well. There was a little 2 year old at the table close to the window, needless to say she was delighted when the seagull showed up. He did eventually fly off but came back about five minutes later. Made for a special event that is for sure.
Leaving Sausilito and crossing the Golden Gate Bridge, the only way to highway 101 is through San Francisco. So it was stop and go for awhile, a lit of traffic. But the one advantage that I had was that it was getting to be dusk and I was stopped at a light that showed the Bay Bridge in all it's glory and lights.
