We left early in the morning for the bay area to both drop off my grandparents back at my aunts place in burlingame, and to celebrate my dad's birthday, which is tomorrow. The first thing we did was walk around below and on top of the golden gate bridge. It's the first time I've gone from the beach to the bridge.

The hike isn't very difficult at all, and you're rewarded with some pretty great views of the bridge.

There was a thick fog in the morning that slowly cleared up as the day progressed.

For lunch, we went to chinatown, where we had dim sum.

We spent the rest of the afternoon on the beach, and then drove to burlingame in the evening for dinner with my aunt's family.

This year I took roughly 22,000 photographs, up 46.6% from last year.
