San Francisco.....
........liked ths street on the wat to Chinatown! Last blog for this holiday - leave San Fran tomorrow pm for London and back home again on Thursday. Been quite an adventure! Looking forward to seeing the family.
Today we headed off to Fisherman's Wharf today to pick up our bus to the "bridge",Sausalito and Muir Woods. Saw the noisy,smelly but quaint sea lions in the harbour at Pier 39 before having breakfast at Boudin's,"the founder of sourdough".
Caught our bus and headed out to the Golden Gate bridge. Weather was bright but cool - were well-wrapped up for the open-top ride! Spectacular views of the bridge and back to San Fran. When we got to Sausalito,we transferred to Muir Woods shuttle bus (20 minute ride),driven by Lance - quite a character! The redwoods were very impressive but there were lots of them! Enjoyed a couple of hours there. Must confess to falling asleep in the cafe afterwards - I blame jetlag! Got back to San Fran about 5'ish and were persuaded by Lance to go up (being the operative word!) to the Crookedest Street! Well worth a visit. Took another tram back before going to see Tony Bennett's " l left my
heart in San Francisco" and
San Francisco.....
.......the seals at Pier 39, having a well-earned Mexican meal.
Signing off (probably),Grant and Rae.
