Arrived at our pier in San Francisco at 6.30 this morning. We have good views of the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz from our balcony although by the time I took my photographs it was clouding over. It took an hour to get through immigration before we could leave the ship.

When we were here a couple of years ago we did all the usual highlights and must sees so we're just doing our own thing this time.

We had a few rides on the famous cable cars starting at Fisherman's Wharf to pick one up that would take us past Lombard Street (aka as the worlds most crooked street). We sat on the outside to get a good view even though it was a bit chilly and then got off at the shops in Union Square. Good fun going up and down the hills. We caught another one back and had a walk around Pier 39 (and Hard Rock as usual). We arrived back at the ship just before it poured with rain. Shattered by the end of the day!

We said goodbye to Hugh & Sue this evening. We have really enjoyed their company and will stay in touch.
