Getting ready to ride the Cable Car.



Our 2nd day in San Francisco we bought a muni pass to ride
different types of transportation. We road on a city bus to get down to the Cable Cars from our motel.
We had a lot of fun riding the Cable Cars and went on them several times.
We rode on the Trolley Cars which wasn't a great experience.
We were packed like sardines on them. We got off as fast as we could!

The Pier along Fisherman's Wharf.

It was fun watching the ships sailing and to feel the ocean breeze.

China Town



We spent a few hours in China Town.
We went to the fortune cookie factory and watched them make cookies.
We ate at a Chinese Restaurant.
They served us tons of food that we couldn't finish but it was good.


Mick had seen these men playing chess the day before and really wanted to play.
So we rode the cable car down to Market Street so he could play.

He loved playing but made a wrong move and lost.
Mick said this was probably his most favorite thing he did in San Francisco.

Carly, Kaylie and I felt a little nervous as we watched him playing.
We observed alcohol being passed around and men digging
out of the nearby garbage cans trying to find food.
We were relieved when the game was over and were happy to ride the Trolley Car back to the Wharf.
