So this year kinda started out with nothing planned but maybe just small weekend trips.
Usually I plan our first big trip, a year in advance.
Wasn't sure what was gonna happen and then my woman texts me saying she won a trip through her work. She's entered this raffle the last 6yrs and finally got it. [emoji41]
The location was San Francisco.
This was completely new to us.
Having never been on a plane OR in a airport, also being in a big city we was out of our element.
Only had about a month to prepare and figure out what's there to see.
I kept an open mind about the whole thing.
Once on the plane, the takeoff gave our guts the willys bad. Fun though.
If you've never been on a plane it's kinda like a being in a boat when you get to 30,000ft.
We used Uber to get around while there.
View from the hotel.
The next day was raining so we decided to hit indoors type stuff.
Im not a religious guy but seeing the Grace Cathedral was cool.
A part of the movie Bullitt was filmed here.
Next was the cable car museum.
These pull the cables though the streets.
They also had a full machine shop.
Drool.
Then we walked a few blocks over to China town. Got somewhat lost and decided to make our way to union square.
Had lunch at the Burger Bar overlooking union square and made our way back to the hotel.
Alot of walking that day.
Day 3
Got sucked into the whole time share deal but ended up with a gift card to spend after the presentation.
Then we were off to see the Golden gate bridge. Rented bikes at the Sports basement to ride over the bridge.
Container ships are huge.
Windy and noisy but very fun riding across.
Took the bikes back and had the Uber driver take us down Lombard (zigzag) street on the way back to the hotel.
The next morning we left early for the piers.
Yep. Going to prison. [emoji15]
Next stop, Alcatraz !
Bay bridge
This was filmed in the movie (Murder in the first) and left there.
The self guided audio tour is awesome. They give you some headphones and a iPod thingy.
You hear them making comments as you enter like a real prisoner on his first day, yelling "fresh meat".
