San Francisco

Here’s a look back at our unforgettable time in San Francisco: „One half of the city basks in sunlight, while the other sinks into thick fog—such a unique atmosphere!“

- We spent the nights at the **Golden Gate Vista Point ($0.00)**. (Along with many other campers, feeling completely safe.)
- Walked parallel to the freeway (not the most relaxing route, but definitely memorable!) 😬.
- Visited **Fisherman’s Wharf** and found some fun souvenirs 🧲🍩.
- Marveled at the steep **Lombard Street** with its 31.5% incline.
- Enjoyed the first rays of ☀️-shine at Pier 39.
- Melanie saw California sea lions for the first time—there were so many! 🦭. 😍
- Explored the world’s largest candy store 🍬🍫🍩🍭.
- Rode the **Cable Car** and checked out the **Cable Car Museum**. (Dillon's big dream—last time he wasn't allowed to drive because Edy thought it was too expensive.) 😘
- Had a delicious meal in Chinatown 🇨🇳🥬🍚.
- Strolled through the **Financial District** (like every big city, it has one, but here it’s up in the clouds!) 😉.
- Admired the bustling **Ferry Building**, with live music, Shakespeare in the garden, and a charming little market.
- Climbed all 414 steps to the **Coit Tower**.
- Snapped a picture on San Francisco’s famous slanted streets 😉 (We loved how the street names are printed on the pavement at intersections!; so that we always know where we are.)
- Saw at least 8 police cars speeding by with sirens blaring 🚓🚔🚨.
- Visited the historic **Fort Point**.
- Finally caught a glimpse of the **Golden Gate Bridge** before it disappeared back into the fog. 🌁
- Learned that the bridge’s massive steel cables were individually installed over a span of 9 months—amazing!
- And to cap it off, we spotted a raccoon 🦝 rummaging through trash cans late at night.Read more
