Oh give me a home where the Buffalo Roam

There are few things more touristy than the cable cars here so of course we had to give them a go.

Then took an underground metro which became a tram running along roads. Very strange. Headed for the Golden Gate Park (which bizarrely is nowhere near the Golden Gate Bridge). A fabulous place, 3 miles long and half a mile wide and being used to the full by the locals on a sunny Saturday. Included an interesting art gallery (hence the rather bizarre photos) and a 9 storey observation tower. And a small herd of bison (incorrectly called buffalo I believe) which I do think should be in every park. Such splendidly galumphy creatures.

The photo of the rather unexciting sanny and a couple of cans is included as an illustration of what £24 buys you in this fair land. Thank goodness one sanny is enough for both of us.

G was keen to dip her toes in the Pacific. Not that cold so I was told.

Back out to Chinatown but ended up with a Vietnamese restaurant. Bit basic and no license but nae bad. Not for the first time we had partly consumed the meal before I got round to taking the required photo. Apologies.En savoir plus
