SanFrancisco was the escapade for last weekend - old, industrial, congested,beautiful and massive construction are features of this city.I was very amused by the roads inside the city,build over hills - steep going up and down , like you are going on roller-coaster ride!!
The crooked street on Lombard just kept winding down quite steep surrounded by house
s and well-done gardens, its a beauty! And everytime you are around these up n down streets , its a very good excercise! LOL! ;-)
Besides driving around the downtown we went to the bay, checked out the bay bridge,walked down to the Aquarium there- quite a good break with the extraordinary colors under the Bay-fishes,sharks,batrays, star fishes, jelly fishes all moving or around and over you was especially fun for the children.There is also "Touch the bay" for those who wud dare to touch the baby sharks,bat rays and even the starfishes!
We drove up also to the world famous "GoldenGate bridge", it was very cold though and we
werent quite expecting it to be clouded by fog- but thats what we got! there is a memorial built at the other end of the bridge,dedicated to army and navy.The Golden Gate is amazing,the tower is so huge and you think the length of it can go on and on...its sooooooo long! :-) Besides. the view of the pacific and the tiny islands are just so lovely.
While we returned, we again got to ride on those steep roads(my roller-coaster) and the view of the city from that height was pretty! SanFrancisco is definitely worth a trip!
