San Francisco!

Well....today we did it, San Francisco....first we went down this winding, twisting, angled mountain road for about 40 minutes, then through a tunnel around the corner....and The Golden Gate Bridge was right before our eyes!  It was AWESOME.

We did quite a tour of San Francisco.  China Town, the crookedest street, the steepest street, Russian Hill, Fisherman's Warf, Pier 39, Haight-Ashbury.  Quite the day.  Do you know that you simply cannot make a left turn in this city?

We saw several bums, homeless, street people....they have great signs here!  One man was laying down...had a stick fishing pole with a can hanging from it which said, "gone fishin'" (fishin' for money!)  Next we saw a guy with a sign that read "need money for weed"  then another who had a sign "need money for beer"  no fooling around with these guys, at least they're honest with their needs, haha.

N and A saw a guy swallow a sword, we saw people painting beautiful pictures with spray paint of all things, it's quite a city!  We're hoping to go back before we leave to sample some of the fine sea food!

Now, here are some photos for your enjoyment!!!
