To bust the myth that I went to San Francisco without taking any picture of the Golden Gate Bridge once and for all... here it is:
It is much harder then you think to take a clear picture of it... San Francisco is really foggy place in the morning and only in the late afternoon it clears up.
And the surely-not-photo-shopped proof that I was really there:
On this side of the bridge it is flying over an old military fortification which was planed to get knocked down at first. Later plans simply extended the bridge over the fortress.
I really have to say that this is the most amazing bridge I saw so far, espiecially when you take in account that it was finished in 1937. The painting of this 2.7 km long construction is a full time job: When finished in the 30s the painting crew started all over again on the other side. This is going on till today.
