In a one-chance in a million type of event, we met our friend Arnaud in the parking lot of a grocery store as we were getting some bread before heading to Muir Woods. He had planned a hike in Point Reyes but was more than happy to change his plans and join us for the day. I think he does not regret since we had an awesome time hiking the Ben Johnson trail.

The first part of the hike through the Muir Woods national monument brought back some great memories of our trip last year to the Redwoods Park up north.

Alicia took that very cool picture at the end of the hike.
