Streets of San Francisco

We’ve been playing tourist in San Francisco with Tina and her boyfriend Jay. Jay grew up here and can get us around on the public transportation here. They have many ways of transportation….buses, trolleys and of course the cable cars.

Look at those hills!! We found the Cable Car Museum. The cable cars used to be all over the city but after the earthquake and fire of 1908, they rebuilt using electric trolleys.

There are only 4 left. The museum actually is where the cables run. IMG_2352

California and Mason are the names of 2 of the streets where the cable cars run.

After the museum, we found Lombard Street. Here is the part that ‘crookedest street’

Lombard St

We have been having a good time. Tomorrow we go out on the sailboat!! Stay tuned for pictures of the Golden Gate and Alcatraz.
