We returned to San Francisco with my parents to go to the Saturday morning markets at the ferry terminal and then to cruise around afterwards. The Saturday markets were good stuff. Farmers and growers from all over the farming areas of Northern California set up stands all the way around the ferry building and sell their fruits, vegetables, condiments, flowers, honey, and whatever else. There were cooked food stalls and buskers and everything else a good market should have. Afterwards, we took the scenic route through the downtown are up around the Marina area to the Golden Gate Bridge. Photo ops were limited due to some brutal fog rolling in.
We continued on past the expensive neighborhoods to Tiburon and had a tasty lunch at Sam’s, a waterfront bar and grill that my parents and I have been going to since we first found it in 1982. Mmmm… tasty. After lunch we watched the US drop out of the World Cup and then went back to SF by ferry. We wandered around Fisherman’s Wharf for awhile then took another ferry to Oakland and had dinner at Yoshi’s. Maaaaan, I miss good, cheap sushi. -jp
Ein wunderschöner Samstag in San Francisco. Angefangen mit Farmersmarkt am Fährterminal und Mittagessen im Sam’s Anchor Cafe in Tiburon, wo Justin und seine Eltern schon seit Ewigkeiten speisen und es immer wahnsinnig lecker ist. Nach dem Mittagessen sind wir dort noch ein wenig spazieren und danach mit der Fähre zurück nach SF, vorbei an Alcatraz und ab zum Pier 39 wo ganz viele knuddelige Robben auf uns warteten.
Die Fotos von der Golden Gate Bridge sind leider nicht so gut geworden, da der Nebel kurz vorher reinzog und ganz dick hängen blieb. -mk
