Will's Early Birthday Celebration in the Bay!
We are going to be in Minneapolis for Will's birthday so I thought it
would be fun to do a little early birthday celebration with Katie and
Alex in the Bay! We know that we'll be back in Oakland after our time in
Hawaii, but I still felt like we needed to check some things off our
list that we hadn't yet done.
Our day began with a mini road trip to the North side of the Golden Gate Bridge to Mt. Tamalpais. It's 2,571 feet at it's peak and the hike up takes many hours. Instead of doing such a long hike, we drove up to the summit and went on more of a nature walk than a hike around the summit. It was a pretty clear day so we had some beautiful 360 views of the Bay.
After our "hike" it was time for our second destination - Lagunitas Brewery! A couple weeks ago when we hiked Alamere Falls we really wanted to get to Lagunitas in Petaluma, but it was pretty late in the day and Petaluma was another hour and a half away. So today we made sure to build in the time to get there. Will's favorite beer here in Cali is Lagunitas IPA so his birthday celebration seemed like the perfect occasion to visit the brewery. Lagunitas was PACKED! But we were able to get a nice table outside and get a flight of all 16 of their beers on tap and some lunch. After eating and drinking we joined one of the tours to go through the brewery.
The third event for the day was Settler's of Catan and dinner at our apartment. And to top it all off, Will won! WINNER!
