Ok - I am a wee bit miffed. I was so looking forward to the 'endless summer' this year! Instead it was Arctic cold here today. Winds blowing a gale and dropping temperatures enough to make my ears ache!
We bravely headed out anyway for THE bridge. Everyone on the bus laughed as we approached our destination and the kids all spotted the bridge at once - all crying out, "The Bridge! The Bridge!"
We joined a guided tour that was very informative (the kids patiently stood through that!) then we walked across the bridge dodging people jogging, serious cyclists on a mission, and
zigzagging tourist cyclists - all highly dangerous!
After a hastily eaten lunch in the cold, we retreated to the warmth of the Exploratorium afterward. Another wonderland for kids! See pictures below.
