Up on Twin Peaks at the start of the tour of the City

I and mum on Twin Peaks

In Golden Gate Park, near the Japanese Tea Garden

In front of the Japanese Tea Garden

At the other side of the Golden Gate looking over to SF

At the Golden Gate

And a panorama

The seals at Pier 39

On the way back from Pier 39

"The steepest street in World". Or not. Not even in SF, apparantly

Pretty steep though

and a nice view. That's Coit Tower over there

Another view down um... that street.

Using the flash this time

Straight streets.

Now there's a good idea when a hill is steep.

Bay Bridge and downtown from the Coit Tower

Looking the other way out of Coit Tower to Pier 39 and Alcatraz

And up it.

Looking towards the Banking district of Downtown

and up to where the previous pic was taken

A typical Berkeley student

Pier 39 and the Neptune Restaurant

On the way to Alcatraz

The Golden Gate from the boat

and looking back to the city

The island emerges through the fog

Grim

and uninviting

Gothic, even

The burnt out hulk of the warden's home

Nice and compact
A panorama towards the city

Behind the jail, the stairs up to the back door to the exercise yard

A view through a hole

And a great one of the exercise yard. Probably not many tourist bother to go this way and get that view through a peephole

or that.

The Warden's House

No entry to the fountain

Straight streets, pity about the rain

Up near Haight

on the way back from Haight-Ashbury

Riding the streetcar

I missed the match by 2 days. Talk about exotic

In Chinatown

Coit Tower that way

Zooming in on Alcatraz from the Neptune
