San Francisco

Hi everybody, having abit of trouble gettiing photo's onto the blog at the moment so I've just put a few highlights of San Francisco on. It's a really beutiful city, lot's of hills though. Anyway I've put some of the most iconic photo's ono this blog.
So today ( Saturday/ Sunday for you guys ) we hired some bikes and rode across the Golden Gate Bridge, amazing.

The cable cars!!! We've riden these heaps, really good way to avoid climbing the hills, although we are staying on top of Nob Hill so we do have to climb our fare share, but it's good for us, burns off all the unhealthy American food we've been eating.
Acatraz!

We went out here yesterday, did the tour, was amazing. Feeling compelled to watch The Rock, Escape from Alcatraz, The Bird Man Of Alcatraz, any move that has Alcatraz in it and especially So I Married An Axe Murderer ( my pick of the week ) Alamo Square

Came here today after our bike ride. Fans of Full House ( and any other show or movie set in San Francisco ) should recognize these houses. Great views back over the city.

The Palace of Fine Arts.

A very interesting place, Roman sort of buildings, nice parklands, fetured in So I Married An Axe Murderer, have I mentioned that it's a great film.

So in conclusion San Francisco is a great city and we'll post some more photo's when we can.

    What about the film 'The Bridge'? I've heard it's quite disturbing. A series of cameras set up on the bridge to document people contemplating suicide... mmm... entertaining!
