Views: Sunset is nice, the clouds are colorful. We even saw a patch of clouds with rainbow color. Normal winter wind. We saw a lot of birds and an Amtrak. After the Amtrak passed by, most of the birds evacuated the water. May be it is the noise or may be it is the shaking. The view consisted of the East Bay with sunset green hills. Sunset over the Western Hills, too bad the reflection on the water was not too great. The trail was a little bit wet but it was manageable. We started late because we started after Fr Andrew's liturgy retreat. Overall, a short stroll with very nice views.
