San Francisco

by tombsp - last update: Jul 20, 2005

At the top of Lombard Street
San Francisco was the first place we stayed on our honeymoon.

We were advised to stay in Fisherman's Wharf, which I think was a bit of mistake. It must be one of the tackiest tourist traps I've come across in the US. I think the English equivalent would be Brighton sea front. Nothing of any interest, its only purpose is to milk the visitors who have yet to discover the real San Francisco

One of the best things was the food. Everything you can think of from take-away burritos in the Mission area to the finest Italian restaurants

We both had a brilliant time, we only wish we could have stayed longer.

The second stop on our honeymoon was Maui

The final stop on our trip was San Diego

 so far the biggest Japanes garden in Western Europe is in Belgium... but don't expect a big garden indeed :-) they are not big, but sooooooo beautiful. That bridge picture is awsome :-)
