Day 46-San Francisco-16 Aug

San Jose to Stanford with our bus. Then we went it alone and found the Palo Alto Transit Centre to catch the baby bullet to Embocadero Station in SF. Took our lives in our hands as we caught a taxi to Fisherman's wharf to meet with Dylan Tours. The driver drove like a maniac and was convinced he was a famous singing star and a circus star. Didn't want to burst his bubble and ask why he was now driving taxis. Dylan's tour of San Francisco was on a small bus with Pear (it's Scandinavian!) which started at Fishermans wharf:

The Presidio NP which used to be an army barracks but is now rented out to various individuals:

The Golden Gate Bridge in partial fog:
We had lunch in Sausalito where I would live if I lived in San Francisco.  It was really small and is warmer and has less fog than San Francisco which is just over the bay.  The Golden Gate Bridge again from above Sausalito:
Alcatraz:
Muir State Forest.  A really lovely little place with huge sequoia.  Paul and Sandra consulting the map to find out where they wer:
