Avenue of the Giants and Humbolt Park

Today we pretty much just needed to get back within striking distance of San Fran airport so we had a bit of time to kill. We took the scenic drive through Humbolt National Park called "The Avenue of the Giants" which was an amazing road that wound through some massive trees. Half way along we also went to another walk. It was kinda rainy but that made the forest look pretty cool:

The main attraction of this place was a tree called "Giant Tree". I think they got a bit lazy with their names. Me and Blair had a go at climbing him but despite our best efforts couldn't reach the first branch:

We still had a fair way to drive and Blair did a sterling job in the rain. We unfortunately missed the rest area outside San Fran and didn't really realise until we were cruising over the Golden Gate Bridge, I can tick that off the non-existent list. We found another rest stop that was pretty close to the airport and stopped for the night. Blair was pretty knackered from all the driving so we watched some "Extras" while me and Kylie polished off the rest of the rum.
