My Frisco Excursion

Here are some pics from my rest and relaxation get-away to San Francisco. Okay, so, I did attend a pharmacy conference there, but, whatever! It was so cultural and picturesque (and windy!) there. . .I loved it! Everything's better when you can do it with your honey, so I can't wait to visit with mine. And no conferences!!



This mansion was on Nob Hill. Used to be some billionaire's house--silver baron James Flood. . .now it's the Pacific Union Gentleman's Club--playground for the powerful and wealthy.

Coit Tower: purportedly designed to look like the fire hose that firefighter's use, dedicated to San Francisco's finest.
You can't see it very well, but this is the curvy decline of Lombard Street.



Me--on a street car.

Entering Chinatown through the famous Dragon Gate. I was hoping to get some great lucky bamboo, but I didn't have time to look. Every street light in Chinatown was actually a gift from the Republic of China and they were very ornate. Can you see the two dragons "holding" up the lamp shade?



Fisherman's Wharf.
Me at Fisherman's Wharf. With Coit Tower in the rear. . .

My view from the car on the way to Fisherman's Wharf. See The Rock?



My comfy room at Parc 55 Hotel. And, I must note--they had excellent service. The hotel was gorgeous and I would highly recommend it.

Looks like you had a great time! We can all use some rest and relaxation from time to time. In fact, I'm getting ready to go on a R&R vacation in a few weeks.
