We arrived in San Francisco late at night after more than 12 hours of driving. Before entering the downtown area from the north we popped off the highway to get a nice night time view overlooking the Golden Gate Bridge. The views of the bridge and the city were amazing and clear. After driving over the bridge and some fancy moves in the big truck on the small city streets, including 10 point U-turn on Lombard St, we arrived at the hotel. It was after midnight but Adam and I went for a short walk to the kinkiest street in the world. Wow, now that I write that it sounded really dirty, but no, it is the steepest or the windiest, maybe both. Anyways, we went for a walk…
The full day of driving was rewarded with being able to spend a day being a super tourist around San Fran. We embarked on a hop-on/hop-off bus tour around the city and saw the main attractions, Fisherman’s wharf, Golden Gate during the day, Chinatown and lots of other cool places. The day was finished off with a crab feast right on the water front looking out to Alcatraz. It was great. Another walk around the city back to the motel then it was off to sleep. Next Stop, Santa Barbara.
