Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco, CA

Its already 5 months I came to USA... In-spite of hectic schedules of Vinay, we made some time to visit few places in and around Campbell... One among them is Golden Gate bridge in San Francisco...

Our journey started at 8.30 am on 9th May 2010... We went to Light rail station (LRT)to catch train at 8.52 am and got tickets to Mountain View... it took 1.15 hrs to reach... we had next train i.e Caltrain to Millbrae at 10.19 am... we had to catch another train i.e BART (bay area rapid transit) from Millbrae to Daly City... thank god we had train for every 15 mins... From Daly city we took SFO muni bus... Finally we were at Golden Gate Bridge... It was 12.15 pm when we reached the destination... Nearly three and a half hours... Fed up of travelling, completely exhausted... But the very first sight of bridge gave me energy...






The bridge was calling me near to it... Gained the spirit to watch and started walking towards it... It is the biggest bridge in the world... So height, touching the sky and so lengthy... The red color bridge made me astonish for a moment... The way it is designed to connect the two shores of pacific ocean is incredible... It has got huge pipes and thick ropes... we can see the foundation is very hard... Hats off to great mind worked for it... Walking on the bridge is really fantastic experience... The sound of vehicles, cold wind blowing across the bridge, the vibration of bridge soooo on... A GREAT EXPERIENCE...



This is how it looks from pacific ocean... one of my photography :)
