Last day in Frisco

Today we treat ourselves to breakfast at a restaurant just around the corner from where we are staying.

It’s called Sunday’s.  It’s very good.  Eggs Benedict with chipotle sauce.  Yum!

It’s such a beautiful day we decide to go into San Francisco one more time and walk up Embarcadero.  This is one of the ships at the Maritime Museum

Pier 39 is like a carnival.  So many people out enjoying the good weather.

We decide to go to the National Park Visitor Center.

Yerba Buena Cove was the name of the area before it became San Francisco.

During the Gold Rush there were many ships that were deserted in the bay when the people who arrived on them quickly left to discover gold.  These ships ended up under the new San Francisco when the land was reclaimed.  This museum was really good explaining the beginning of San Francisco.



We catch a trolley back to where we get on BARD to get home.  These green and cream coloured trolleys are the only original trolleys from San Francisco.  All other trolleys were brought from other states.  They have been running non stop since 1947.  

A day trip to Berkeley

Today we take BARD up to Berkeley.

Great Farmer’s market.



Post office.  Great architecture.



We’re on the Berkeley Campus.  This is the Slather tower.  It was closed so couldn’t go up.  The grounds are beautiful.









Downtown



Playing chess.









We finally stop for a late lunch and then head home.

Revisiting some areas

Today we decide to revisit areas that we went through on our Love Tour but weren’t able to take pictures.

We take BARD downtown to the Civic Centre stop.  We see some government buildings and then hop the bus to Golden Gate Park.

Entering Golden Gate Park.



Conservatory of Flowers







We visit the Japanese Garden and have tea at the tea house.







Then off to Haight Ashbury.











The Grateful Dead







We saw several driverless cars heading around the block.  Not sure if they were testing them or if they were actually working.  We did see one person in the passenger side.  Creepy!





Gorgeous Victorian homes.  The architecture is amazing.

We climb up the hill and enter Buena Vista Park.



The views from the park are amazing.

The climb was definitely worth it. 











Lots of signage reflects the sexuality of the area.  We stop for tea and then jump on the metro to head home.  Another long day. 21,210 steps!
