It is also the location where the Golden Gate spans the opening creating a line of steel and gold between the Pacific Ocean and the bay inside.<br><br>Almost on cue, the beautifully sunny day quickly turned as the fog began rolling in off the Pacific \u2013 the ocean moisture returning from an offshore hiding spot for its nightly visit. The bridge acting as a gatekeeper between bodies of water and the gradients of weather.
