hey there people, so Sunday was our first full day in San Fran and our hostel is fairly central near the town and shops!!! Today we had to put our pics onto CD so we could use the camera here, loads more pics to show u but can't find an internet place that actually lets us put them on...grrr sorry!! whilst we were waiting for them we headed to the diner nxt door. it was wicked, all traditional 50's style American diner with 50's music!! we ordered mahooosive breakfasts with eggs, bacon, potatoes..yeah you get the picture!! Then we took a cable car ( very odd experience if ur the lucky ones who get to stand outside holding on for dear life!! we did later and had to move quickly to avoid getting hit by a lorry coming the other way!!) down to Fisherman's wharf which is a cutesy harbour with cafes and shops and piers etc. We walked along the harbour and found an aquarium to go to, it was smallish but had a walk through tunnels with fish swimming over head, also touch pools so got to touch star fish etc! after this we walked further down the piers and went to a museum which had all these old fashioned arcade machines, very fun! attempted to find the place to book a wale watching cruise but couldn't find it so gave in and took a stroll in the sunshine! then headed to the Golden Gate bridge and although very windy was a very extraordinary view (bit of movie trivia..the bit in x-men 3 where that ian mckellin guy moves the bridge anyone??!! ooh and then when Hugh Jackman is getting peeled but never loses his god damn trousers..damn it!!) anyhooo yes so we walked along that and took a loada pics of the city from here. took the bus bach through the park, so got to see a bit more of the city, and have to say its one of the prettiest and cleanest we've visited!!
