San Francisco
Upon arriving in San Francisco one thing we didn’t expect was to be so damn cold! Seriously, I was shocked there wasn’t snow it was so cold! This was by far the coldest weather we had experienced since winter of 2006! Having experienced temperatures in the high 30's for almost the last year, we were now faced with temperatures of around 16 degrees...a real shock to the system and wardrobe!!
Whilst in San Francisco we of course had to pay a visit to the well known Alcatraz Prison where you got to walk around the insides of the prison listening to commentary of previous inmates who explained how bad the place really was!!

Another major tourist trap in San Francisco is the trams which take you up and down the stupidly steep streets. We also took a tour around San Francisco, visiting amongst other places the world’s most bendy road and the Golden Gate Bridge.
Other than the tourist places we spent much of our time shopping and visiting outlet shopping centres designed solely to give our credit cards a damn good bashing!!!

The bendiest street in the world and the Golden Gate Bridge (by fog!)
