To be small

If you ever want to feel small and really know how minute your existence is, I recommend going to the Redwoods in California. It’s incredible how an entire forest is made up of majestic trees that you can drive your car through. Yes, I was in a truck and the truck drove through the trunk of a living tree (Chandelier Tree)!!! I was taking a picture later and while leaning against the tree, I ended up getting tree sap on my hand.

To give you an idea of how massive the Redwoods here are some pictures:

The day after the Redwoods, we went down to San Francisco. The first time I went to San Francisco, I was a senior in high school and I fell in love with how open and freeing the city felt. I loved the diversity, which is different from New York and any other city I’ve ever visited.

            Being a tourist, I went to the San Francisco Bridge and Pier 39. For those who don’t know, Pier 39 is a the tourist place to see. It has the aquarium, which was a ton of fun to visit. My niece was adorable when watching the stingrays swim above her in the tunnel. There were also Sea Lions on the pier.
