Third day, More Fisherman’s Wharf and Skyline

Today was kind of an open day for me.  i had one more day on the pass I bought for the Cable Car so I needed to use it up.  Waited in line for about an hour to take it back over to Fisherman’s Wharf.  Wandered around aimlessly for a while.  Went down Hyde St Pier to see the historic ships and spen a half hour or so looking for a bathroom…:)

Took a walk down along the fisherman’s pier.  That was a lot longer than it originally looked.  Almost got run over by a group of Segway Tour riders…it was either a case of not knowing what they were doing or a complete “I’m better than you because I am on a Segway” thing.  Either way I survived…:)  I met a nice couple out at the end who turned out to be from Destin.  We talked about the oil spill and how little they’ve actually seen in Destin.  That was actually good news.  We walked back together and went our separate ways.

Tried In’N'Out Burger and think 5 Guys is better.  Certainly the fries are.  In’N'Out for burgers seems more like what The Varsity in Atlanta is to hot dogs.

Since the sun came out (GLORIOUS!) I decided to take another boat tour to get some skyline pics that weren’t completely gray.   Then I waited in line one more time for the Cable Car back.  Got back to the hotel and collapsed.

I’ve got one more day.  I’ll be driving down to Monterey and back along coast highway 1.  hopefully it won’t be too foggy.

Here’s the pics from Thursday.  Hope you enjoy!

This is almost the entire ride from the Powell St turntable to the Hyde St/ Beach St end. Unfortunately, my memory card ran out of space before finishing.  It’s most of the way, though.
