Bay Bridge

This is the Golden Gate's lesser known cousin, the Oakland Bay Bridge. I don't know why it's not as famous because it's also a fantastic suspension bridge built in the same time period. It looks especially nice at night.

View from the bridge

This is the view onto the non-San Fran side of the Golden Gate. We took the bridge when we drove out to Napa Valley. There are parking areas on both sides so you can get out and walk the bridge. It's definitely worth it!

Bay view sky

A beautiful blue sky coming to you direct from the Golden Gate Bridge.

Ye olde cigar shoppe

One thing I love about San Fran is the restos. There are tons of cute, European-style places on every block. I would love to come back and try them all!

This one was called Mario's Bohemian Cigar Store. It's right off Columbus Ave in the heart of the Italian district. We had a delicious brick-oven pizza and a salad. Plus a side of ambiance.

The Rock

Alcatraz Island always has a mysterious look. I didn't get to visit it during my recent trip, but that will leave me something to come back to.

Good eats

My husband and I met some friends for dinner at this restaurant on our last evening. Delicious!

San Fran classic!

You can't go to San Francisco and not hop on a cable car. That would just be wrong.
