The last time we were in San Francisco was 34 years ago! We loved it then and wondered if we still would. Yes! But like so many fabulous places it could only be well-served if you find an apartment and stay awhile. This time we will just manage to brush the surface but even that is thrilling.
Today we drove in to reconnoitre. We are staying in Marin County so stopped to view the famous bridge from a hillside before crossing into San Francisco. We then spent the rest of the day following a self-directed 49-mile drive around the city. We stopped often so our tour ended when the sun set and we headed for Fisherman's Wharf for the requisite Clam Chowder in a sour-dough bowl.
Tomorrow we'll take the ferry in, hop on a cable car, and head up to China Town. Rain is forecast but it is needed badly so we won't let it stop us.
