Our visitors from Spain absolutely loved San Francisco. The cable car broke down after we were only on it for 2 blocks, but SF rolled out the best weather I have seen there. We picked 2 of the best days of the year to visit SF for the weather.
This trip was 1 hour waiting for the cable car - 5 mins on it before it broke down :-) Oh well, I think it is 130 years old so we can cut it some slack.
Then beautiful walks through Chinatown for some, Lombard St. for most, a return to the Pier/Wharf area and Ghiardelli Square for some and lots of shopping for all.
My friend Lessie and I had lunch at Tadich Grill on California and had the opportunity to meet Wille Brown right as we walked in! That was nice - but sorry we did not get pictures. Tadich Grill is more the kind of spot where the famous expect to be comfortable so I didn't want to act too "touristy".
Then, the piece de resistance... hope I spelled that right....we walked across the Golden Gate Bridge! Best weather ever for that and the views were breathtaking. We took pictures and videos and couldn't take ourselves away. So of course we got home really late and, at least I was exhausted the next day.
Another thing that was nice was that my sister Lynette got to come down and meet everyone at the cable car turnaround. She works in financial district and it was her only chance to meet them.
Another awesome day in the city by the bay.....
