I took a little trip in Northern Cali after I graduated high school. Went to Monterey, Carmel, Muir Woods, and San Francisco. The second best trip of my life, the first being the Sundance Film Festival which is very special for an entirely different reason. Northern California is one of the most beautiful places I've ever been, from the parks to the the city of San Francisco. Our last day we just walked all around the city, we must have walked for at least 5 miles (or it felt like 5 with all the steep hill climbing we had to do), and it was one of the most rewarding days in a city I had ever had.
