Day 10: Sightseeing in San Fran

No rush today since it was our rest/sightseeing day in San Francisco. We packed up,ate breakfast and pedaled to the Baylink Ferry. We caught the 8:45 Ferry and 1 hour later we were pulling into Port. It was cool to cruise by the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz.

We got off the Ferry and thanks to Google maps we pedaled right to our Hostel. What a differance it was riding in SF versus Highway 50 in NV. The traffic was crazy yet controled. They are very use to cyclists and we saw alot of them.

Once we checked in and settled in room 104 we walked the 2.5 miles to Fishermans Wharf. We had a great time seeing all that was there and experiencing the culture. We also experience some clam chowder in a sourdough bread bowl, lobster bisque and fish and chips. To top it off we bought a couple of truffles for dessert.

Since the walk to the Wharf was so up and down we decided to catch a cable car back. It was awesome! On the way to the Hostel we found a barbershop for Ben. He got his desired haircut and was very pleased.

We returned to the Hostel to take care of e-mail and blogging then went to dinner at a Vietnamiese restaurant, it was amazing! One of our roommates, Stanley, went with us. He is a recent Grad School Graduate from UCLA and a very nice guy.

After dinner was truffle time! Now it's time to go to bed, tomorrow begins the push down the CA coast. We will be camping in the Santa Cruz area.

We covet your prayers!
