Had a fantastic time in San Francisco. Beautiful city, with some of the most amazingly ornate apartments and houses. It really is the hilly city, which makes for some fantastic views of the bay and city...but it is an uphill struggle during your walk home or anywhere for that matter!
The marina, just a stone’s throw from our hostel, had a great vibe. So many restaurants, bars and shops, it was probably our favourite part of the city. We had some lovely cold beers in the sunshine of the marina on our last day.

We only really had time for one main attraction so we opted for Alcatraz. Really glad we did, it was a beautiful day which made for fantastic city views and ferry ride and the tour was great. I was slightly disappointed, that tour guide “Vicky” (see “So I Married an Axe Murderer” film) was not on hand to give us the unofficial Alcatraz tour, but apart from that it was a great day out.

Loved our time here, we would definitely come back and visit some of the other main attractions, like Golden Gate Park. At the minute, it’s probably our favourite city so far.
After our waffles and coffee tomorrow morning, we head start the last leg of road trip – the drive back to LA via the Pacific Highway.
