San Fransisco

June 19 2012

Today we have jumped out of the Thousand Trails campground system and are staying in Marin RV Park which is located in Greenbrae, a neighborhood adjacent to San Francisco. As we entered San Francisco today the expressway ended and became a city street. We passed through several city neighborhoods of connected homes, but the architecture is different than what you think of as inner city row houses. Soon the route took us across the Golden Gate Bridge, it was pretty cool taking the motorhome over the city icon, if we have time we want to go back and walk over the bridge.

From the park we are in we can walk to a ferry landing and take a boat down the bay to the city waterfront. From the waterfront we can access the city trolley system, including the cable trolleys which have just returned to service after a two year rehabilitation. We can can and already have walked to several stores just down the street from our urban setting. Another unique feature here is an unobstructed view of San Quentin prison, now there’s something everyone has heard of but not many can say they’ve seen it!

When we left LA we had seen enough city for a while or so we thought, but we are excited about going to downtown San Francisco tomorrow. The adventure continues!
