sanfrancisco



















Well today was a wild ride, warm and piecefull from Oakdale to Tracey and well after Tracey to San Francisco well lets just say exillerating, intense, wild, four lanes of traffic three more lanes merging in and two exiting off ramps, a bunch of semi's and crosswinds and pothole and uneven pavement everywhere. It was like standing in a swarm of bees and trying no to get stung or in simple terms it was a cluster fuck. The ride from Oakland to Frisco was rather cool the air I mean compared to what we have been riding in. The scenery and bridges as you approach San Francisco was neat, old buildings and everything built on a hillside, it is pretty unique. We were gonna stay out near the airport, about twenty minutes out of town, but we chose to pay a little more for a room and now we are right across from the famous Fisherman's Wharf, right choice. We wandered the piers today tried some cool foods, people watched and had a couple beers. We then decided to get onto one of the cable cars and it took us into downtown SanFrancisco. Now that was and interseting ride up and down the steep hills, was really cool. When we got to the city center we bailed off the cable car and headed into an Irish pub for something to eat, they had a buffet, we weren't impressed but had a look anyways, well let me tell you the corned beef was really tender and delicous along with real mash potatoes and green beans for ten bucks wooohoo, oh ya had to add a Guinness. On our way back to find a cable car home we, well I spotted a Victoria Secret store so we went in wooohooo again. Took the cable car back to fisherman's pier, wondered around, had some oysters in the half shell and crab fritters and then picked up a bottle of wine and now are back at the room.
