last moments in san francisco

I saved the most typical touristy things for the last evening/morning.

Lombard Street

Dramatic clouds around sunset.

Alright I caught my boat in time for a night trip to Alcatraz.

Alcatraz

Inside

The crappy SF Bay Aquarium (I only went because I got in for free)

I'm a terrible person.

Rainy day on Pier 39

Fisherman's Wharf

Nice car and a Street Car

One last ride

At the BART station, these guys were pretty good.

Yup that's it. Kind of ended with a fizzle...

Check out the better parts of the tour in my signature if you haven't already.

cheers

Alcatraz at night must be a cool experience. Thanks for the SF threads.

Thanks for the tours. Next best thing to being there in person.
Alcatraz at night. Glad that a lot of light are on or would be major spooky.

Were you as sad to leave San Fran as I was? Judging by your pics, it looks like you had a great time. Thanks for the great photo threads.

I have NEVER seen Pier 39 or Fisherman's Wharf that empty--but it's been 7 years since I was there on a rainy day in winter.

Sorry you thought the aquarium was "crappy". I thought it was mediocre on the one occasion I went. Let it be known that that Pier 39 aquarium is a private tourist attraction. There are 2 good aquariums in central California for aquarium fans--the one at the Steinhart Aquarium at the Academy of Sciences and the Monterrey Bay Aquarium in Monterey.

Anyway, enjoyed these pictures like all the others and hope you enjoyed your trip.

i guess i'm just not a big fan of aquariums (it was raining outside, i had a free ticket to it, it was near my hotel, i had some time to kill before my flight) and this one was pretty small and poorly lit. the academy of sciences was much cooler, yeah

The skies have looked like that a lot lately.

Another nice set. Thanks for posting all these great shots.

Excellent...I love the gray skies in this set.

I say this too often, but I WILL live there one day...

Oh, SF, how I miss you.
