A nice long weekend north of SF

We had a nice long weekend north of San Francisco. We stayed at a great airbnb in occidental /camp meeker and went to three places nearby

- on the way, we went to Point Reyes lighthouse - it was very windy and take 0.4 miles hike plus 313 steps to get there but was beautiful
- went to bodega bay for a nice lunch at fisherman's cove and went to schoolhouse beach. That was full with beautiful pebbles instead of sand. Kids had fun and collected a full jar of them to be used for an art collage later
- lastly went to monte rio beach and did some paddleboarding by Russian River. Only 10 min from our airbnb and a nice 85 degrees

On the way back we stop at sushi tri for a late lunch in Novato. Everyone loved it. And also found a great mango fruit and shaved ice stand to get some desserts

Overall a lovely trip with pretty nice weather.
