Lake Merritt Lots of patience and slow motion movement to capture this rare moment There are so many exquisite trees alongside the lake's paths. Here's one of the gnarly ones. #treelove #treetrove An aerial shot showing San Francisco, the Bay Bridge, and The Twin Peaks at the bottom of the photo. Sunsets from the east side of the lake are beautiful. Plenty of lakeside lawn and benches for a picnic. Lakeshore Avenue. Restaurants within 1 block (up Foothill): Portal, Rockin' Crawfish. Vegetarian & Vegan Diner. Open late and serves Organic Santa Cruz mountain beer on tap and excellent milkshakes!! (picture of our table) Since 2010 the walking path and landscaping around the entire lake has been upgraded. It's now very beautiful. During daylight hours it's safe to walk around the entire lake, along with all the families, musicians, runners, and people walking their dogs (and once I saw a duck on a leash being taken for a swim). The gondola is often out at sunset. Gecko crawling up the front of the building is a far cry from King Kong crawling up! Lol. I find the architecture and design on this building quite impressive. And, yes, the gecko is most certainly a plus, so is the eatery below it. A truck that bites. Yours for $2000. Sunset, Sailing, the Bay, and the Golden Gate Bridge...very awe inspiring. Chicken and waffles! Not to mention good Mac and cheese! Partial view of the front entrance of St Paul church, San Francisco, California Canadian geese out for a stroll in Lake Merritt, home of the first wildlife sanctuary in the U.S. Founded in 1870 by the mayor of Oakland, Dr. Samuel Merritt. At the time there were still thick wetlands surrounding the area which attracted migratory birds, including a variety of ducks, egrets, American coots, Black Crown Night Herons, seagulls, and more.

Sunday afternoon around the lake Pork chop with mustard butter and potatoes fried in duck fat Beautiful Lake Merritt at twilight with ducks gliding on its water... Great place to sun bathe or people watch on Lake Merritt. Make sure to grab a 6-pack of pbr from Whole Foods for the full hipster effect. Must eat spot! Interwoven branches and twigs...tree culture. #treelove #treetrove Jack London square in San Francisco is beautiful especially in the evenings with an array of fancy boats along the pier and restaurants serving some delicious seafood Beautiful spot in Oakland A sunset on the bay in beautiful Oakland. It really gets a bad reputation. Omg the best burger I've had since Lake Merritt Museum display at the M.A.C. repair store! Barney's Steak-cut fries...just amazing! I live in an area filled with glorious, towering, beautiful, enchanting trees. It blesses my Soul to connect with them. They keep my air fresh and clean. They are our majestic guards. This one stands alongside a gully and keeps great company with the many other trees it lives around. #treetrove #treelove Gentler graffiti Galileo Pizza with added feta and their brewed beer. Yum! Waiting for Elbow. #concert OwlNWood: Cool place to shop! ITreasureME Face & Body Floral Mists are absolutely heavenly! Ahhh Bird Tree Delicious duck carnitas tacos.. A Must try! Some of the place setting at the Z gallery store Look for the discrete blue food truck here during the week, or around Lake Merritt on the weekends. It doesn't look like much, but the gyro is incredible. A gorgeous display of octopus kites during the kite festival. My favorite place for sweet treats in the East Bay.

Looking over the Berkeley Marina The Whiskey-Drome at Oakland's annual PedalFest. Liquid courage recommended. Delish breakfast, everytime!! #cockadoodle #oakland I love Lake Merritt. It's beautiful all times of the day. There are folks walking around the lake throughout the day, all ages, too. There's a Fairyland Park for the kiddies, swings, a bird sanctuary, boat rentals and gongolas, even a labyrinth. There's the wonderful Lakeshore shopping area close by, too. More walking, lots of fun, great restaurants, the infamous Grand Lake Theater and much, much more! View from outside a restaurant at the Jack London square in San Francisco. Oakland old town streets, hidden gem! Seared scallops over pumpkin purée at Bocanova Restaurant. On a sunny day ask for an outdoor table, you can enjoy the food and the view of the marina and people walking by. #Delicious Stained glass recovered from old cathedral is now displayed in the basement of the new cathedral, a peaceful and beautiful way to display and blend the old with the modern.
