Bob, Karon and Holland follow the Mother Road from Chicago to Los Angeles, detouring to Las Vegas and finishing the trip in San Francisco.
Plenty of planning went into this trip. Flights were booked – in to Chicago and out from San Francisco, a hire car, accommodation along the way and tickets/bookings for some of the attractions. It was a pretty full itinerary but we still had time to explore.
Marin County
Next day we headed out over the GG bridge for Marin County and Muir Woods. Too late to stop at Muir Woods – the car park was full – we headed on to Mount Tamalpais. Mount Tamalpais, known locally as Mount Tam, is a peak in Marin County, California, United States, often considered symbolic of Marin County. As I had a Marin MTB at the time, it seemed only right to pay a visit to Marin County.
