San Francisco: Day One Hundred and Forty - Morning (7 March)

Our cousin was busy today so we took the bus to Union Square and joined the queue for the cable car. (Going to San Francisco and not riding on a cable car would be a bit like going to Venice and not riding on a gondola). We rode all the way to Fishermen’s Wharf (past the famous curving road that features in all the films – Lombard Street).

We had a great time looking at the old ships moored at the wharf before taking an hour’s cruise on the Lovely Martha, which gave us great views of the bay, bridge and Alcatraz. (You can look round now it’s no longer a prison but that didn’t appeal to us).
