SF

Virginia and I are spending a couple of days in San Francisco using our "use it or lose it" time share points. Ruth dropped us at the Pittsburg BART station yesterday afternoon, and we relaxed on the train all the way to the Powell Street Station, a few short blocks from our hotel. We're staying at the Donatello near Union Square. It's a nice place, and we can walk almost everywhere we want to go. Today we relaxed early and headed out about noon, hiking the Powell Street hills over to Fisherman's Wharf. Here are a few pics of our adventures.

TransAmerica Tower from Powell Street on the way to Fisherman's Wharf.





Good shot of the Bay Bridge and East Bay. See Mt Diablo?


Peter and Paul Church, often used in movies.

Looking up Lombard Street from Mason. If you look really close, you can see cars on the switch-backs at the top.

Virginia wanted to get some footage of fog rolling in to use in video projects.

It was quite breezy and in the 60s, but it was really beautiful today. For the most part the air was crystal clear. I'll post more pics over the next couple of days.
