The adventure today began with a short 1/2 mile hike to the Point Bonita Lighthouse.
During the hike, the trail led me into a tunnel cut through the rock.
The trail ended at the Point Bonita Lighthouse with its original second order Fresnel lens still in the tower and is still in operation.
To get to the lighthouse I walked over a suspension bridge in which only 5 people can walk across it at a time.

The lighthouse is now automated using this light bulb.

I then drove over the Richmond Bridge to east bay to get to Point San Pablo.
Out into the bay from Point San Pablo is the East Brother Lighthouse.
The lighthouse is currently a bed and breakfast and the proceeds go to preserve the station. For more info about these 2 lighthouses click on these links.
