Of the Last Supper and the seagull from Fisherman's Grotto Restaurant in Fisherman's Wharf in SF thereby

When my wife and I to the Fisherman's Wharf found in 08 years with the San Francisco again, it was the United States / Canada 30-day camping trip out west near the end. So, we decided to eat dinner at a restaurant where a disproportionately on our travel style ... ^ ^

Maybe it's the mark of Fisherman's Wharf nostalgic (crab) ... probably the most famous in the world when I see it? (Click here for Google Map map)

This is looking at the menu board, but much of the fun is the cover art ... holding the menu board take photos ~

Fishing seems to have not received a lot of glass Alioto's restaurant and the second floor of the restaurant is out the window. Landscape scenery in the restaurant looking out the entrance of the restaurant are lined with open-air shops I remember that moment so they panic.

And it was our dinner menu was almost the first and last 30 days from the travel Dungeness Crab chowder and Cram, who small fries with a fork wisdom. "Dad stop taking pictures, Can not we just eat fast?" It is this expression.

Or only building visible behind the hill towering over the pout pouting, like a landscape in the countryside and in the fishing village where.

Old model was on display in the dining room on the entrance road to come after a meal, this restaurant is that it should operate a third generation native San Francisco.

North and in the number of tourists and Fisherman's Wharf are still in front of the open-air restaurant,

Some ticks Honk car staring at the food they shed seagull who does not budge.

One each in a parked car occupied seagull sitting up ~

Sausalito side of the Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco came to visit, and the Golden Gate Bridge. I looked up to the sky in a straight line extending away from the road, not something made nicknamed "City of Hills" for nothing.

Second floor tour bus at the moment stereotypes that red unconditional broken!

The sound of automatic start stop whenever you hear here and there was also the vehicle harness Thai sliding pushed back the dreaded road is very steep Lombard Street (Lombard Street). (View on the map as a Google map, click here)

When you get on top of a hill called Russian Hill (Russian Hill) is called, come now winding down flower road called 'The crookedest road in the world', one of the specialties of San Francisco down to me. 3 people if I like riding a bike - my home for true hope ... ^ ^

That seems to have made away koit tower built around a fire hose (Coit Tower) of the flower road winding down.

Taken up at the front seat looking out the window photos, giving yet does not protect the reputation of the hydrangea and roses, lilac (hydrangea) is.

Find a place in the car to go straight down the intact, and never taken back SLR camera viewfinder wife picture in running car in the last four weeks, thanks to car travel, you become a hermit - ^ ^ This view looking up the hill because the west is best to take proper pictures of the flower road early this morning in spring.

"Once you see hanging ~"

Delhi is just rep Square (Ghirardelli Square), and a hearing where the last one before going out for the evening is more.

The place is right in the famous Ghirardelli Chocolate shop.

Profound divide the most famous chocolate squares staff dressed in white blouse entering the entrance, you can get in and out of several shamelessly. However, it is not a gift to someone else collect it because they give you is a little bag ... ^ ^

Inside the store so we sell a lot of chocolate variety, and there is also a small cafe selling drinks. If you want your gift to commemorate a special chocolate, but I travel to San Francisco to pick where you want to eat, just buy the chocolate squares rep Delhi, cheaper to buy at Costco or other shop than here.

Up the side of a hill of Sausalito overlooking the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco

Napa Valley is a place beyond the hot July, the scenery of the cool sea again met the famous beach in a small town north of San Francisco, Sausalito.

Practice in full swing for children over the yacht quay a small high-rise buildings in downtown San Francisco seems to have.

Actually to private yachts for helicopters, is the Tiger Shark is not a yacht drifting in force -

I come to the 'artist village with the most beautiful scenery in the world' in a Chinese film starring Maggie and people is, well ... maybe I do not know which is the most beautiful in the world, probably the most 'expensive' artist village of It seems to be one clear ~

Skip to pass through the sea with a Treasure Island in the name of 'Treasure Island' long Bay Bridge (Bay Bridge) and in front of the background of the movie was in Spanish Pelican meaning Alcatraz (Alcatraz) island is close to home seems. This is the only beach in Sausalito landscape looking around awhile, climbed back into the car to see the Golden Gate Bridge from the destination of the afternoon ~

To climb a hill with a gazebo overlooking the bridge well to the north of the Golden Gate Bridge in Sausalito, fall into Conzelman Rd ride on Route 101 just before the beginning of the Golden Gate Bridge that came down along the Ave and Alexander the trail. (Note you briefly vigilant, because thinking! Deserted stadium across the Golden Gate Bridge to Route 101), of course, but also use the gazebo next to the bridge, which is made visible in the photo on the left parking lot, go to the end where you saw the Golden Gate Bridge correctly, make sure the It should all come down to glance up the hill.

Pulled up on the side of the road is there to walk the first observatory, and revealed a little look over huge hills.

Wisdom looks behind - raising the arms to the head Mom and dad, like a suspension bridge like the Golden Gate Bridge ...

The hat is a tempestuous wind blowing over the hill afraid to get blown out hanging in the air above the bridge and a focused red car that they come back in and grabbed wisdom.

Both here in the hills north of the Golden Gate Bridge has been designated by the Golden Gate National Recreation Area (Golden Gate National Recreation Area), which is operated by the National Park Service Visitor Center (National Park Service), we just can not pass. But, could not the aperture closed the door early in the Marin Headlands Visitors Center is here 4:30 hard to see on the map visited. And regret over the hill behind the back, find the highest point on the observation deck of the highlights from today -

Park the car in a hurry Observatory told the camera. The passing through Golden Gate a cruise ship is just one! My wife and I came to San Francisco several times, it was the first time you can see the Golden Gate Bridge on a sunny day so much.

Floating in the air over a red bridge looks pretty good too tall buildings of downtown San Francisco, mysteriously.

Railing is installed again for family photos - safe photos Hmm ... but still, cool ~

Reason called 'Golden (Golden' Gate Bridge that newly painted red and the Golden Gate Bridge every day somewhere in the painting is looking at the sunset the sun is shining with golden yiraneunde, we were unable to run the machine when hungry. (the fact that because of the color of the sunset, but the narrow strait that lies before the Golden Gate Bridge is due)

And the phone is asked to sleep tonight seniors living in SF, we go back down in the car now and head to bundle under low load. (Please check with Google Maps by clicking here wind Those who are curious in this observatory is located)

The hills and the north coast of the Golden Gate Bridge was the old days, everyone is missile facilities and military bases to, so there is still a lot of debris in the observatory so. This picture has somehow childhood neighborhood atmosphere the rear side fly ~

Now down the hill into the city of San Francisco drove directly past the Golden Gate Bridge. The opening of the world's longest suspension bridge in 1937, the two towers are very thrilled to be a height of 230m above sea level and actually see below.

Oh tourist bus, so we could not climb up the observation deck at the top of the hill, not the only way to drive the car rises. Grunge Finish commute time, I remember, without the toll road as we ride (Carpool) gave just sent.
