A 2,000-feet blanket of fog entered the East Bay yesterday and by chance, our walk was in the midst of it. The walk started relatively easy, but became more challenging with rather steep terrain, difficult in Wombat’s standard, which should be easy for most other people.

The fog encompassed us and grew thicker as we walked on. The hills dropped down to a grey blanket; we felt like we were on a floating island, in a bubble of its own. It was such a mysterious yet beautiful emotion.
