Here’s the thing about the Golden Gate Bridge: I’m pretty sure it’s my soul bridge.
The first time I saw it with my eyes was in July of 2015; I was on a family vacation with my parents and two of my sisters. I had seen it in countless photographs, tv shows, and movies, yet they did not prepare me to fall in love with that bridge as much as I did.
It’s beautiful from every angle and in every lighting. It’s majestic in the fog that so often fills the bay and is breathtaking on clear days as well.
Some of my favorite views of the bridge are from Fort Point at the southern end of the bridge.
And did I mention that I was born on the 60th anniversary of the bridge’s opening? That can’t be a coincidence.
