Three days in San Francisco


Do not put nail polish on while you are in an airplane! It smells and is highly flammable. Bad passenger, bad!


My sister, niece and I shared an AirBnB apartment in the Castro/Haight area for our 3 day stay in San Francisco.


Had to see the Painted Ladies. We climbed the hill during the day on Valentine's Day and found an communal art project propped against a tree, so we contributed.



Buy some cheese toast here
Took a free tour of the Ferry Building and then walked around the markets both inside and out. Loved the Zeppole doughnuts and butter caramel dip.
They melt the cheese and then scrape it onto the bread.

The three of us shared this plate.
We ate our way around San Francisco.


The largest Chinatown outside of Asia. I would like to have found the fortune cookie factory but couldn't. Next time I will make better plans to find the place.


We picked up ingredients for dinner at the market and took it back to the apartment.


We found our dessert at the Cheesecake Factory on the 8th floor of Macy's. The place was packed so we opted for take-out.


We walked up the hill overlooking the Painted Ladies and watched a fire develop below.

Had to go see what the fire was all about.



We made a pit stop at this church on our way to the Mosaic Steps. 
We found them!


And we walked them

After the third set of steps we made it to the top.
