| San Francisco here we come! |
 |
| First stop Fisherman's Wharf. |
 |
| San Fran is known for it's clam chowder bread bowls. I had a delicious bloody mary to go with this meal. |
 |
| We checked in to our hotel and this is looking down from the 20 floor. The building across the street is The Sir Francis Drake Hotel, very fancy. |
 |
| Built in the 1920's |
 |
| We headed out to explore. There are lots of beautiful shops. I love this lamp. |
 |
| It reminded me of being in New York City, but with the hillier streets. |
 |
| Impressive Chinese architecture everywhere. |
 |
| Old Cathedral from the 1800's |
 |
| Wonderful market places. |
 |
| Coffee break on the pier and sampling cheese. No wonder I was constipated. |
 |
| Original area with speakeasies, brothels, etc... |
 |
| Now for the ultimate Italian dinner at E Tutto Qua (Everything is Here). Appetizer Sea Scallops in a truffle sauce. OH MY! Sea Bass Entre' |
 |
So much fun! I wish we had more time in San Francisco. I would love to come back sometime, bring a truck to load up on gorgeous things. I probably only explored 1/16th of the city. People were so friendly and so many beautiful interesting things to see!!! Next stop the Northern California Coast Line, Redwood Forrest, Wine Country. |
You know San Francisco is on my 'Bucket List' and I Hope that in 2013 I can finally cross it off and say I've been there!? We'll see... if The Man's Health improves sufficiently we may be able to take a short Road Trip to the Coast. Thanks for coming by for a Blog Visit and validating this weight issue struggle I'm wrestling with constantly in my Senior Years Post Hysterectomy Body! It's exhausting and yes, discouraging and sometimes depressing. I mostly have concerns about the slew of Health related issues that can manifest with carrying excessive weight and since we're Custodial G-Parents and The Man is not well, I can't afford to be unhealthy as well since I'm everyone's Primary Caregiver and there's no backup Plan. Guess I'm gonna hafta develop a Serious Love Affair with Plant Eating. *Winks*
