Looking back at our trip (3)



We spent Friday in San Francisco. We planned to have an early breakfast in Johnny Rockets (fondly remembered from our Dublin trips), but it was packed out so we had a stroll along the waterfront, saw some brave souls swimming in the bay, and took a few photos. This one shows Hyde street, which runs from Hyde Street Pier up to Russian Hill


Then we A quick visit to the airport to change the car and an even quicker visit to Candlestick Park and then over the Golden Gate bridge to take some photos. We stopped at the eastern view point just over the bridge on the north side of the bay. The view was good, but there were lots of people in the way of a good photo! Dan spotted a better "Vista Point" on the other side of the highway, so we drove north towards Sausalito then turned off and headed back. The western vista point is at a higher elevation and was much quieter. We had some great views of the bridge and San Francisco.



After returning across the bridge we made our way out to the Pacific coast at Lands End (Point Lobos). We had a walk around and took some photos - did I already say that?!
