how about a trip back to the early 1900's? {i.e. angel island}

a couple of weeks ago we took the ferry over to angel island for a day of hiking.  it is fascinating to see a place so underdeveloped so close to such a populated area.  I felt like we had somehow slipped back in time to see what it was like 100 years ago.

the boat docks in the harbor on the north side of the island, and then you must hike up and around the island to see the views of the city.  everywhere we went was the most spectacular views. 

this is a day trip worth taking, and you can even get a permit to camp overnight as well.  it would be so much fun to go to sleep under the stars across the bay from the bright lights of the city, and yet be one of the only souls on the island.
