San Francisco 1

Noisy night between horn-blowing,long freight trains and the dumpster being ever so quietly emptied only meters away. Left for San Francisco and booked in at a recommended RV park at Vallejo, north of the city. Thanks Larry and Nancy. It is close to the ferry terminal which takes you direct to the city, so we went in that afternoon, caught a trolley to Pier 39 and had a lovely afternoon wandering through the pier. It was bitterly cold, but sunny.

Strolling along Pier 39

A little bit of advice. If a security guy is holding you and says 'get down', do it quickly. Within minutes of arriving at Pier 39, four security guards ran through the crowd, grabbed a guy and were struggling with him, and shouted 'get down'. A moment's hesitation, and wham, with a little help he was down. One guard took off another guy, who came quietly and they were handcuffed and taken away.  After that, the pier was very quiet.
