This entry will be light on pictures, since I haven’t even finished looking through Wednesday’s shots yet. You can check flickr later for more, although there’s always a chance I”ll remember and put them here.
I started off Wednesday with an early muni ride and walk, including a stop at Cafe Francisco on Powell St. Then on to…
Alcatraz
So here’s a tip: get there early! I”m pretty sure I was there at least 40 minutes early, and I definitely wasn’t the first. The Alcatraz tour is very interesting. DEfinitely not creepy–there are way too many tourists for that. I still haven’t finished sorting through my pics.
I took the bus to Coit Tower after the return to the mainland. I was searching for this castle that was an old restaurant apparently located on Telegraph Hill with the tower. I didn’t find it, but as I was looking through my pics today I saw I had a shot of it in one of my tower pics. Oh the irony.
Here’s a distance shot of Coit.
I think I’m going to have to finish the entry tomorrow, so I can do the afternoon justice. Until then, adieu!

beautiful love it
Another beautiful post. Lovely pictures! How did you find the Coit Tower?
Physically, I found it by accident; I was looking for the castle-like building and google maps suggested taking the bus to Coit and walking down (which I ended up not doing for some reason). Tourist-wise, I thought it was interesting, although I believe there was some type of renovation going on, so I did not stay long.
