The City on the Bay

 

I spent this last weekend in San Francisco with my daughter Leah.  We flew down for the Foodbuzz Festival (later post), which nicely coincided with my birthday!  Let me take you on a photographic journey of our visit through the city (with only minor comments).  We booked a bus tour to hit the highlights since we had so little time to see the city and do all the festival activities.  The bus tour took care of most of it for us, plus it was a beautiful November day!

Note:  Photos are not in much of any kind of order.

These cables are everywhere, so hard to take pictures of anything without a cable running through it.

We ended our trip by visiting China Town.

I expected San Francisco to be rainy and cold in November, it didn’t disappoint me.

On Sunday, our last day, we got to experience the real SF November weather and Chinatown.
