Part 4, Land's End Views

Let's move north and away from the area of the rocks with seals and sea birds, and try to get to Lands End:

Moving a bit further north showed the whitewater of the rocky beaches nicely, that is a popular hiking trail down below that one can take from the Sutro area into the Presidio, I understand:

Moving just a bit further north brought a view of a lighthouse at the entrance to San Francisco Bay:

Around the bend, now moving eastward as well as northward, gave a nice view across San Francisco Bay's inlet with that same lighthouse (and its foghorn sounding off at regular intervals):

Moving along the shore further eastward puts one under cypress trees that were very generous with their shade:

I thought this was Land's End, but apparently it is still just a bit too far west, but you get the idea --it is where the land terminates and the ocean begins:

Finally, the Golden Gate Bridge was quite a nice sight from the lookout point just south and west of Land's End:

And it was about this time I realized I would never make my flight home if I didn't hurry out of there and get moving toward the Oakland International Airport soon.  So I did just that and made the flight after the one I was originally scheduled on.  But of course I could not let go of this view (shown twice) from the trail on the way back to the car:

All's well that ends!  That goes for trips, and even the land.
