Decided to go on the bus tour that takes you round the entire city in 1 hour 45 minutes and over the Golden Gate Bridge as well.
We were taken through different districts within the city - like China Town. This picture was on a building in Little Italy.
It was great going over the Golden Gate Bridge and on the other side the bus stopped for 10 minutes to take photos !!!!
There were lots of people on the tour bus from all over the world.... we were listening to the different languages and heard Italian, Australian, USA, and French.
It was a bit cold and cloudy but became fine later in the day.
On Monday next week a group of AEL's are going to cycle over the bridge - now thats a new experience ! And we will catch the ferry from the other side... a great photo opportunity too !
Afterwards I walked round the city and found a nice place for tea.
After some more retail therapy and ending up at a Westfeild Mall that makes the one in West City, back in Auckland, New Zealand look like a corner dairy, went back to the place we found for tea.
It was like going back in time with lots of baseball pictures and photos - a bit like going into the set of Cheers ( if you can remember that TV programme !)
The wind was still in the city but with all the tall buildings it was going in all directions. Look at these flags on both sides of the same street - they are flying in 2 different directions !
After a long day and a nice walk and by 8 o'clock it was time to walk back to the hotel.
