To see the Golden Gate Bridge in full view was a rare sighting but set the tone for day and we hustled and bustled our way across the bridge in a bid to beat the fog that was bound to roll in. Just as we boarded the bus the bridge became shrouded in fog and mist rolling in from the bay. Time to head back into Union square for a last minute golden opportunity to shop till we dropped off to sleep. The bus was loaded down as we trundled down the highway through Sacramento onto Elk Grove High were we were met by our host families. Although a little nervous as we broke up our large group up to spend time individually with our host families the golden opportunity for cultural exchange was embraced by all.
