Travelog post for: Samantha Turtle

Izzy went to the bay area to visit her family and stopped with us at the Carquinez Strait. There we stopped at a look out point to see the Carquinez bridge, Mare Island and the straits that feed into San Fransisco bay. it was so beautiful out, and we learned about Al Zampa, who was one of the men who helped build the bridge! Izzy's grandfather worked on the bridge to and was friends with Mr. Zampa. Mare island was an old Navel yard where they build ships! But it looked pretty quiet when we were there.

We also stopped at a nursery that specializes in native California plants. It was so dirty though, we stayed in the car, but Izzy took a picture of the plants for us!
