Golden Gate Bridge in early morning fog.
Looking across to Lombard Street (the most crooked street in the city) from Coit Tower.
Jasmin looking out toward Seal Rocks and the blue Pacific Ocean.
The noisy, smelly, really funny seals basking at Pier 39 - Fisherman's Wharf.
Haight-Ashbury - remember the '60's 'love generation', with hippies and flowers? This is where it all happened!!
The famous Victorian houses of Alamo Square on Russian Hill.
Charming gardens and shops of Sausalito.
Looking toward San Francisco from Sausalito.
A curvy cliff edge ride to Stinson Beach.
We're having a great time. The mornings are cool until the fog rolls out, then warm and sunny afternoons, perfect!

Wonderful pictures Mary, I hope you are enjoying you trip and the weather stays fine for you. Its very changable here.
ReplyDeleteThis morning there is a definate feel of autumn in the air, its quite chilly.
..ah yes, I remember it well. We lived in Corte Madera and loved every beautiful glorious view. I worked in Sausalito and took the ferry to SF when I worked in Embarcadero Square -the seals at Pier 39! I remember my first sight of them, I said out lout "Look- wild seals- all loose!" You made me smile this morning remembering all the beauty - thanks and have a wonderful time!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing the San Francisco experience with us.
ReplyDeleteI love the picture of you and Jasmin.
I'm so glad to know you are having a wonderful time! Looking forward to seeing you when you get back! Love, Vanessa
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful pictures of the area, and I love all the victorian houses with their many colors. I would love to see San Francisco sometime. I have been to San Diego a couple of times and LA, but never that far north. I'm glad that you are having nice weather; we had rain here yesterday! Yeah!!!
ReplyDeleteYesterday we had fun didn't we? We took a lot of interesting pics. I guess we owe it all to Granddad for stopping at almost every single thing we passed by that seemed interesting! We should get some even more cooler ones today at... LAKE ALMANOR!!! Can't wait!
ReplyDeleteLove,
Jasmin
Beautiful pictures Mary! So glad you're having a good time. Will you have time to also see Golden Gate park? The Japanese Tea Garden is a favorite.
ReplyDeleteBTW, I have always dreamed of having an apartment in San Francisco where I could escape the central valley heat occasionally!
Gosh, I love SF. Such a great area.
ReplyDeleteI love San Francisco. Your pictures are making me want to plan a trip.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Susan
Great pics! SF is one of my all time favorite cities. We lived there during the flower children era. It had a huge impact on us. My husband did his internship at the Haight Ashbury clinic.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you are having a wonderful time. Indeed you are creating memories for Jasmin. She will never forget.

I've actually been to a place you've been to! I left my heart in SF too - the part that wasn't already left at Monterey-Pacific Grove-Carmel.
ReplyDeleteThose houses are so pretty they don't look real.
ReplyDeleteI love the bridge picture. It looks like you are having a very good time. Enjoy.

I enjoyed catching up with your travels, this morning, Mary! I appreciate your sharing all these wonderful photos and stories.
ReplyDeleteNo trips for us, until November, this year. We are going to Branson for the Christmas lights. We usually stay out at Big Cedar, but this year we will be in the middle of everything! Looking forward to it!
Looks like you are getting some fairly good weather. Your photos are fantastic....I'm happy to see San Fran again. CT and I have visited there several times.
ReplyDeleteAh, such great picks..., of a great area. Pier 39 is so fun! And Stinson Beach, location of some cool movies too.
ReplyDeleteSo glad to see you are having such a wonderful time Mary. You and Bob seem to really have 'wander lust' at the moment. Enjoy every minute in California.

Hey, I love the rapeseed fields. They are always so dazzling aren't they? Called Canola here I think.
