Day 20 - Seaside,CA to Oakdale,CA

First stop after leaving Seaside along the Pacific Coast was Santa Cruz, it was a ugly and cold day...

And we finally get to San Francisco:
Ocean Beach

Ocean Beach (windy and wavy as in Northern Portugal ;) )

The following pictures are from a neighborhood in San Francisco, Haight Ashbury:

The city hall at the end of the street next to Alamo Garden:

The City Hall

The Opera

The famous Pier 39, again full of people, it looked like an amusement park.

It is in pier 39 that you can spot many sea lions
This is the place...

Only one was there (fortunately we saw some in Santa Cruz, it looks like in the summer the female migrate south to breed)

Alcatraz from Pier 39

Crepes at Pier 39: Banana, Nutella and Whipped Cream versus Strawberry and sugar

The Fisherman's Wharf

The trolley that goes uphill in Hyde Street

Hyde street
(we didn't catch the trolley, so we walked all the way up until Lombard Street)

The top of Lombard Street

This sign never make so much sense

Lombard Street from the bottom

After Lombard Street, time to see the famous Golden Gate...
Did I already told you the day was cold and windy? It got worst when we went to the bridge... This was all we could see... Fortunately there is a similar one in Portugal ;)




Last stop before leaving San Francisco: Sausalito...

We didn't stay in San Francisco later as the plan for the following day was to visit Yosemite National Park, so, we stayed half way between San Framcisco and Yosemite
