SF Colours - San Francisco
SF Colours CHINATOWN Review

Favorite thing: While walking through Grant street at Chinatown, you can find a colourful street, ok it is shops, and souvenir shops (even worst lol) or it is just maybe that after visiting London or New York Chinatowns, for my first time I was impressed…

Hearts - San Francisco

Hearts

I left my heart in San Francisco...... and

Favorite thing:
Well I founded one of someone else ....

Now seriously, I think it all began with some cows around Europe and San Francisco has hundreds of hearts around that after a year will be on auction. The money will go to Charity.

There were two that impressed me (and I nearly fell in love with 90% of them lol) one was this heart ....

Cable cars - San Francisco

Cable cars

The Trams and Cable Cars Cable Cars Review

Favorite thing:

Who has not heard about them or seen a film where all cars smash in a police persecution?

We used them a few times but the queues are amazing so finally we used more time the other lines as the F that takes you around so watch all center and sea line if you are tired after all day walking

But cable cars are dangerous LOL, the cars drive along the sides nearly touching the people standing on the sides and when you leave the cable car you have to watch that no car is coming. Ok drivers are pretty god over there and careful. But I was suffering for the kind standing on the lines hehehe (I guess my friends would laugh as they always call me mum, as I always worry about this things hehehe)

Murals - San Francisco

Murals

Street Murals

Favorite thing:
We saw them in many streets of San Francisco but maybe my favourite was this one at Chinatown.

Maybe because Chinatown was my first impression of SF and the one that take my best memories.

Maybe because it was different to whatever I had seen before or maybe because it had at the same time so many things in common.
