San Francisco

Here we are in South America. After 2 weeks spent in San Francisco we couldn't leave without putting on paper a few of our 'souvenirs'; that will come in handy when we come an settle around here!!!

The original idea was to spend a few days in town and then rent a car to see the surroundings; Napa Valley, Montgomery, Yosemite Park, Lake Tahoe... But that was before knowing San Francisco!

Finally we ended-up spending the two weeks in town, without a single day spare. Thanks to the great 'Cartoville' city guide we received as a present before our departure, we organized our sight seeing quarter by quarter usually heading-off by bus and walking our way home.  

The first few days were rainy but the last week was gorgeous! Here is our best-off!
