San Francisco

Ok, so we have arrived!  First stop San Francisco , which I loved. We were really lucky with the weather and saw none of the fog the city is famous for (or so our insane tour guide kept telling us). As we only had 2 days, we succumbed to the touristy tour bus thing, but did it in style on a double decker open top bus shipped over from London. We could hop on hop off, so while I usually shy away from such things, it was a really easy way to get around the city. Alcatraz was also amazing, as was the Bridge. The only downside was the 'characterful' area the hotel was in, fondly referred to as the Tenderloin (go figure!) When I say characterful, I actually mean full of hookers, transvestites (yes, the first San Franciscan we talked to was a huge black dude in a dress offering us parts of himself we definitely did not want), hobos and the clinically insane. But its all part of the experience right??
