Houseboats in Sausalito

Went to the city of Sausalito, which is north of San Francisco, across the Golden Gate Bridge.  It is a popular tourist destination, with restaurants, boutique shops and art galleries.   But it is also well-known for the houseboat community that is located there.  There are hundreds of houseboats, but I only visited a handful of them.  Even though it is a community, it is free to take a nice walking tour of the docks area where the houseboats are moored. 
  Back in the city, I took photos of the famous sea lions that appear daily at Pier 39. It's always fun to watch them playing on the docks.
 An unusual sight, a rainbow over the San Francisco skyline.

Roses in May

I went to the San Jose Rose Garden again to see the roses in bloom for this spring.   It is a tremendous sight to see so many colorful roses in bloom all at one time.
