First of all, before you all jump at me, SFO is the most beautiful city in The Americas according to me :tongue3:In case you're wondering, I've been to MXC, LA, BsAs, GDL, CDB, MDZ, PV, ACA, GTO, SD, LV, etc etc etc... Anyway... I spent three days in The City and here are the pics.

DAY 1
Ok, I'm not to tell you the story of my life, but after 10 hrs of driving -SFO is just 6 hrs away from LA. So, you try to figure out what happened. :sleepy:- we got to The City. It was a beautiful sunny and fresh summer day -compared to a cloudy, rainy and cold winter day back in December- and I was anxious to enjoy this beautiful city.


- Some small Bay Area skyline.


- First part of the Bay Bridge ( busiest bridge in the US.)


- SFO skyline from the Bay Bridge.


- Bay Bridge from Fremont St.


- Union Square and the Bank of American Building in the background.


- Geary St.


- The GAP and FOREVER 21 stores on Market St.


- Cable Cars on Powell St.


- Market St. at night.



- Union Square at night.


DAY 2
The next day, we decided to go to Chinatown. I love the Chinatown stores. There're a lot things to see and buy...

I forgot the name of this tower, so lets just call it the X Tower...

- I believe this is Grant Ave.

- California Street. Bay Bridge on the background and please... excuse that SOB. :mad:


- Pine St.


- Chinatown Gate.


- Geary St.


Ok, so... We went to our hotel room and then we decided to go to the Civic Center.

- If I'm not wrong, this building is the Veteran's Building.


- Some federal building.


- Asian Art Museum.


- Some building behind the Asian Art Museum.


- City Hall.


- Some building in the Civic Center area.


- Other buildings around the Civic Center area.


We ate some delicious Thai food and then we headed for Lombard St. ( aka Crooked St.) and the Golden Gate Bridge.

- Coit Tower.


- Bay Bridge.

After taking some pics of the city from Lombard St., we decided to go to the world famous Golden Gate Bridge.

DAY 3
This is my third and last day in SFO. I've been pretty much everywhere except for one place, the CBD. We didn't have a lot of time left, so I got on the car and I told my friend Eric to take pics while I was driving. Here are some of the pics.

- Montgomery St. going south.


- Bank of America Building.


- California St.


- Density.


- Some skyscrapers on Market St.






- TransAmerica Pyramid.


After driving around the CBD, we decided to go for a walk. We walked a long the Embarcadero all the way down to Fisherman's Wharf.

Now we're on our way back to Lala Land. Again, my friend Eric had to take these pics because I was driving.
