Muir Woods

During a 2 week stint attending Yahoo! summits in the Sunnyvale offices near San Francisco a group of us took a ride to Muir Woods after a tip off about this stunning place from a good friend and former colleague Lucas G-G (thanks man).

It's about 40 mins north of San Francisco and has some of the tallest trees (Coast Redwood [Sequoia sempervirens]) still standing today.

On the way back from Muir Woods the group stopped at the lovely Penguin Inn right before Muir Beach, an old English pub serving "Bangers n Mash", "Fish & Chips" & of course London Pride and Guinness too. We sat out on the grass under the sun - pure bliss!

It was a fantastic day and well worth the drive, I recommend it to anyone staying in the bay area.

Cheers
Tim
