Beautiful San Francisco

San Francisco really is a beautiful place.

Classic tourist shot of the road up to Fort Point, underneath the south end of the Golden Gate Bridge.

Looking back at the city from Fort Point. The dome is The Palace of Fine Arts, where a lot of people go to see the swan pond and take pictures.

San Francisco is also full of surprises. We always knew there was a series of above ground walkways connecting the Embarcadero business and shopping centers, but we didn't know how far the walkways extended out to residential areas. Basically, you could live entire weeks above ground. We saw restaurants, homes, a gym, a dentist's office, and even a Safeway could be reached from above ground even though it was on ground level.

The ever-present fog, rolling in above the Transamerica pyramid.

J calls this the prison building and is convinced evil robots work inside. I just like the fountain.

A set of stairs from the above ground world down into the regular world.

The Ferry Building in the distance, filled with culinary delights.

I found this Kate Spade stationery during my trip. I really like how simple but cheerful it is. But I'm not avant garde enough to go for green wedding invitations, so I'll have to pass.
