Day 24 The Last Leg and Trip Recap

Leaving Monterey




 It was a very scenic flight from Monterey to Santa Rosa.





Bye Bye Monterey







We left the Monterey Peninsula behind.
Santa Cruz from the Air



Flew towards densely populated Santa Cruz area. Then over the hills and San Jose.
Over SFO




 It was definitely a bird's eye view as we were  very close to SFO at 3000'.
Over San Francisco




Then the City itself. We could feel home getting closer and closer.
SF and Oakland Bay Bridge




It was a perfect day for taking photos.
Marin & Golden Gate Bridge




 The Golden Gate Bridge is always a special sight from Bravo.
Landing in Santa Rosa
 

We went into Santa Rosa for appointments, lunch and a visit to the new Whole Foods store to replenish the fridge.
