weekend getaway

This weekend was AWESOME. It was such a nice treat from the craziness of the past week. On Saturday, I woke up at 6am to this beautiful sight. The colors were just so awe-worthy.



Around 2 hours later, we arrived at Pt. Reyes and went through one of the dirtiest and muddiest hikes yet. My shoes were slipping and getting sucked. The biggest surprises during the hike was on the way back, there were cows (huge ones!) blocking the trail! Too bad I wasn't fast enough to capture a picture of Brian running towards the cows, and scaring them off in the process. In addition, the first bed of water we saw in the beginning of the hike had subsided later on in the day, leaving mud and splotches of trapped water. Then we proceed to hit up the beaches.



At this beach, there were a lot of rock formations and we can even saw a lot of stratification. That was cool - seeing the layers of rock that has been there for ages. Of course I would not of realized all this without Brian pointing it out (duh).



On Sunday, we went yumcha at a place called Rice Bowl Restaurant in Sacramento. It was a decent place for dimsum but taste-wise, New Canton is still more favorable. Then we drove in circles (!!!) trying to find the local Ranch 99 and when we finally found the address, it turns out that the stated address, the location at which the Ranch 99 website posted up, was an EMPTY BUILDING. Oh. My. Gawd. It was so disappointing, but at least I was with good company. Plus, the hours or so nap that we took afterward makes everything better.

Good hike, food, nap, run, and company = AWESOME POSSUM! (Thanks for taking me Brian!)
