Muir Woods
is a National Monument. This is actually a forest on the shores of pacific
sea having huge redwood trees. This has some walking trails of 1 or 1.5
hours where you can see the inside of the forest. But we could not see
the forest of redwood trees as we were bit late to reach there. This Muir
Woods and some beaches are in Mill Valley.
After the experience
at Golden Gate Bridge, we thought that we can not get any other experience
which can make us spellbound. But the Muir Beach experience proved us wrong.
The road to Mill Valley goes up and down the hill. And for all the way
we were having a very thick fog, makeing it impossible to sea ahead much.
So we had to be very careful and slow while driving there. As we were too
late to take Walking trails we decided to go to some beach just to see
the sea.
When we reached
the parking at the beach, we were able to hear the roars of sea, but could
not see it. So we thought sea must be much away from the parking. But to
our surprise it was very near to the parking. But the fog has totally covered
the sea. The fog was so thick that if there would have any big ship just
200-250 feet from the shores in the sea, we couldn't have seen it. Only
upto 150-200 feet of the sea was visible. We didn't even thought
of touching the water. It should be too freezing.
