San Fran

Today we had a bus tour of SF.  It was an introductory tour of SF.  Then after lunch we walked around the shopping district, and our farewell dinner is tonight.  Below are some pics.

View from Twin Peaks - the bane of SF - "farg".
Gorgeous Victorian houses.
Famous SF Cable Car. Hoping to get a ride but the queues are long.
Another kind of coffee shop. Sorry Mary, your name didn't make this one!

I didn't know you could get inorganic ice-cream!

We couldn't get close to the City Hall because of rallies.  When we asked why, we were told it was because of the "goings on" in the White House.   I just read that the pro-Trump people have cancelled their rallies.

I went to look at an Icebreaker shop - a NZ company that makes woollen T Shirts etc etc etc.  I was shocked to find their prices MUCH higher than in Australia.  Good to know I guess.  It is usually the other way round.

Tonight is our farewell dinner.  After that, Kin Mun and I have 2 and a half days to get around SF on our own.  We hope the long-awaited big earthquake holds off for a few more days. So far, not even a wobble.

  1. I heard on the news that the SF racist rally was cancelled due to the fact that dog excrement had been deposited all over the meeting area. What a creative non-violent way to prevent it. Way to go, San Francisco! -Deb
