A view of the City's Main Library at the Civic Center area.
The City of San Francisco is sandwich between the Pacific Ocean and the beautiful San Francisco Bay. This pier is right on the Bay along Embarcadero Street. The San Francisco Bay Bridge is walking distance to the right of this picture. The island across the Bay is Treasure Island. This pier is frequented by weekend fishermen, by lovers at night, skateboarders (although illegally), tourist and anybody who wants to walk and enjoy the view. I like the rhythm formed by the old lamp posts and the white cantilevered concrete beams. I wish though that there was better sky. Anyway there is always a second time. I live only forty minutes away.
This is a view of downtown San Francisco. The traffic light you see at the foreground is at the corner of Kearny and Pine street. I am standing near the center of Pine Street. In this photo I am looking towards Market Street which is at a lower elevation than Market Street. Pine Street is one of those steep sloped streets in the city. Market Street is layed out diagonally on the gridiron street pattern

This photo was taken at Grant street near the Chinese gateway pagoda. Those colorful lanterns caught my eyes. This area is a colorful fusion of a Chinese market town and American main street. The Chinatown in San Francisco is a very densely populated 24 block core bounded ny Broadway Street, Montgomery, California and Powell Street. You must walk San Francisco's Chinatown to fully experience Chinatown's vibrant and intense character. Information taken from sfchinatown.com

It was 10:00AM, I was showing my brother in law and his family the City of San Francisco. After going through the Presidio area I took them to Baker Beach. It was very foggy, no sunlight coming through the clouds and it was fifty-nine degrees F. The maintenance man and his cleaning machine was still going through the beach, but here was this group of people wearing jackets having a picnic! I wonder if the sight of the Golden gate bridge makes them warm?
