This past weekend was one for the books. The weather was amazing so my friend and I decided to play tourist in our own city. I suggested we rent those little yellow carts and drive around the city, however my friend suggested we check out Sutro Baths. Somehow, my idea got overruled and we ended up going to Lands End. For those of you who don't know what Lands End and Sutro Baths is; Lands End is right at the coast of San Francisco. You can find some of the most amazing views in the city here (in my opinion). On a clear day, you are able to see Golden Gate Bridge, the Marin Headlands, and even some dolphins or whales! Sutro Baths is part of the Golden Gate Recreational Area. However, at on point in time, Sutro Baths was the largest public swimming pool in California. That is, until the 1960's where it burned down and was never rebuilt.
Once we parked at Lands End, we followed a small path down to the baths. Due to it being a nice day, there were a lot of other people who were out and about as well. We both hadn't been to Sutro Baths since we were younger so we thought it was pretty cool once we got there. Some of the things we saw while exploring were; a pair of dolphins, some caves, and a small little beach only accessible once you've gone down to the baths. Needless to say, it was a cool experience, however due to it being an old swimming pool, there were a lot of decaying stone, and algae you had to be careful of when you were walking. One of the tourist there missed a step and fell right in, yikes! Here are a few pictures I took from our adventure.
