Day trip to Albany Bulb
February 2nd, 2012
Kevin, Lola and I took advantage of a clear, warm, sunny day to make a day trip to the Albany Bulb (just northwest of Berkeley, right on the bay). It’s a former landfill (go figure) which is now home to an awesome dog beach, some nice walking trails, and lots of awesome graffiti art to look at.
Kevin and Lola’s favorite past time: playing fetch in the open water
Lola swimming in the bay (see the kayaker and the city skyline in the background?)
Soaking wet dog
This was a memorial of Miss Daisy painted on a rock overlooking the dog beach. So sweet!
After Lola’s dip in the bay, we took a 30 minute walk to check out the graffiti art and the views of the city skyline.
Me, Lola and the baby bump
Kevin always likes climbing down on unstable rocks/ledges…
…and Lola always follows after him!
Follow the leader
See the giant deli sandwich to the right? And notice all of the random shoes hanging from the branches?
Lola’s new apartment
Kevin wondering if this note “Not a white man’s b****” was meant for him.
The trails went on and on but with my pregnant self I could only go so far before we had to turn back. There is so much to explore here!
HAHA!! I just laughed out loud reading “Kevin always likes climbing down on unstable rocks/ledges…” That is so Brian too!!! LOL!
Hahah, and THAT’S why they’re such good friends. Oh yeah, and they’re both nerds too, that doesn’t hurt either. 😉
