A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words!

Coit Tower atop Telegraph Hill with a flag on the left and TransAmerica Tower to the Right

You  haven't truly sampled San Francisco without a taste of Sourdough Bread and Seafood.

Sea Lions cuddling and snoozing in the evening sun at Pier 39.

Standing on Twin Peaks with the city behind us. 

After a yummy lunch at the Fog Harbor fish House, the carousel was calling the little ones, and
some not so little ones!

Little daredevils wanted to ride on the top tier...can you see them waving?
I couldn't but I know they are there!

Atop Telegraph Hill is Pioneer Park where a statue of Christopher Columbus resides
beneath Coit Tower.  From the parking lot, beautiful views all around!

And of course we had to pose with Christopher Columbus!

We stayed at Pioneer Park until the sun  was almost down.

As the sun was setting on the Golden Gate side, it created a back light on the other
side showing the Bay bridge!

I kept seeing and hearing this huge mountain as "Mt Tam".  Locals are very familiar with
it's awesome beauty, but few tourists get to make their way to the summit!

Need I explain!  This was from the SF side of the bridge!

Of course I needed to pose with the Grand Lady of the Golden Gate!


In all my visits to the area, I had only viewed this icon from a distance.  This day I
visited and had a chance to know this beautiful space.

Seal Island...sans seals...but beautiful still!  This is the view from the
CliffHouse Restaurant window.  

After a delightful lunch the cousins soaked up the ocean views and breezes.
