Birthday Hike

As promised, here are the pictures from my birthday hike. I hadn't gotten much sleep the night before, but I had planned to do this hike, so around 10am (after my Dad called to wish me Happy Birthday!) I laced up my hiking shoes, filled my water bottle (thanks, Mii Amo) and headed out. It was cold, but the sun was shining and it was too nice out to spend the morning inside. I hadn't been to this trail in a few years. It was more beautiful than I remembered -- I realized that Land's End is my favorite place in San Francisco and I was so happy that I had decided to spend part of my birthday there. The only way it could have been more perfect is if you all had been with me. The whole adventure took about an hour and a half with the vista gazing and labyrinth walking. My legs were shaking by the end because there is a lot of up and down on the trail, but I felt great! Later that afternoon I met a couple friends for tea at Samovar Tea Lounge. All in all a pretty good birthday!
