Hello from San Francisco,
I never thought I would say this but it is nice to be back in a big city with shops. There is a hugh Macy's here that has a Cheesecake Factory (its a restuarant) on the top floor. Michelle and I went there for cheesecake however it wasn't until we ordered and the waiter bought our cake that we realised that we should have shared. The portions are hugh here, but the great thing about the states is that they let you take whatever you can't manage to eat home with you.
So what else have I been doing in San Francisco apart from some serious shopping (I haven't figured out how I am going to get it home yet). I have been to Alcatraz which is very impressive the day we went a past imate was there signing copies of his book in the gift shop!!
I also cycled across the Golden Bridge which is a nice easy cycled ride what they don't tell you is in order to get to the bridge you need to cycle up a very steep hill!! At least on the way back it was all down hill however I think I will have to hit the gym when I get back it must be all the pancakes for breakfast.
The rest of my time has just been spend wandering round San Francisco admiring the 'painted ladies' that's the name for the colourful victorian houses - I even saw the house used in the film Mrs Doubtful- and riding on the wonderful cable cars that crawl up even the steepest streets.
