We got on the\u00a0tram from Market and Powell street. But out of the city centre we visited the Alcatraz Prison and Sausalito (in front of the city). With no doubt the main highlight is the Golden Gate Bridge where we spent a whole morning.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The car tour that we did started in San Francisco driving to the south visiting Monterrey and Carmel, here we visited the Carmel Mission founded by Fray Junipero Serra.After that we crossed the 17 Miles Park and we spend a night in the Big Sur ( a long and winding road about 200 kms long). We just arrived to San Luis Obispo where a lot of people who drives from San Francisco to L0s Angeles stop for spending a night, but we took the road to the north-east to Reno and finally we arrived to Yosemite National Park.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Yosemite<\/strong>\u00a0is one of the National Parks more visited in USA, it&#8217;s located in the border with the Nevada state and you can get there from San Francisco, Las Vegas or Los Angeles. Natural landscapes are really spectaculars with a huge granite formations: El Capitan and the Half Dome. On the east side of the park we spend a night in the ski resort of Mammouth Lakes and from ther we reached the Lake Mono and \u00a0<strong>Bodie State Historic Park.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/C1I-D5S27vY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The tour go ahead to north-west of the state passing the central shires where gold was discovered.
