After riding back across the bridge I continued along the bike trails on top of the cliff.
The Map again.
There was a lot of concrete from all the fortifications along the cliffs. The city is currently removing a lot of landfill that the army has built up over the years.
This was on the southern gun emplacement of Battery Cranston.
You could just see the lighthouse on the point.
This is Baker Beach.
Another fortification, this one is Battery Crosby built in 1900.
Looking back at the bridge from Battery Crosby.
Jet trail and headland.
That's why they are cheap, they have their own shipping line !!
Enough with the bridge already !! From the Eagle Point Labyrinth.
Not a sign that you see everyday. It was on the trail to the lookout and I saw a couple of similar ones around the Legion of Honor.
The house next to the lookout was bigger than it looked on the outside.
I rode up the rest of the hill to the Legion of Honor. This is looking back towards the city.
They had The Thinker out the front. I didn't realise that there were so many around the world.
The columns around him were cool too.
Inside the art gallery.
There was some art around the place.
The chandelier was from a Russian palace.
Psyche was having a bath.
I was getting an impression this was an art gallery.
Looks a bit like the grandfather of Keanu Reeves.
There was a nice table.
And a couple of French rooms. Frist the Salon from the Hotel D'Huumieres, which was demolished in 1905.
Then the little Paneled Room from around 1680.
And finally Louis XV Room from 1735.
This looked very 3D.
Interesting roof.
They had also got their mummy back, after 65 years at another museum !
And Stanford medicine put it through their MRI machine.
They found some cool things like amulets and closeups of his bones.
The back of the Thinker and the entrance arch.
Overlooking Crissy Field on the way home.
I also stumbled upon the Presido Pet Cemetery.
It's obviously a sacred place as they are constructing the new freeway above it without disturbing it.
There was a bike on the train with a serious horn.
Lots more photos here.
