San Francisco Part Two

We were sitting eating dinner and a lady walked by wearing a long black dress and hat, carrying a candelabra with a bunch of people following her..... well, we were in California! After dinner we stopped to sit in the little park by Grace Cathedral, and guess who walked into the park! She was leading a vampire tour of San Francisco!

Sunday Brunch

Two more name signs!

A Visit to the Cable Car Museum..................

We had a wonderful dinner at the Cliff House on our first trip to San Francisco 30 years ago.

These are the cables that the cable cars run on....

The cable cars were invented by a gentleman who saw a cart being pulled by horses slide down a hill........

Another sign of someone (dog) I know!

Mark riding on the cable car...........

These people really wanted to be on my blog.................
