In May Lady Lis and Me went over to the States to visit San Francisco. In 1996 we were in S.F. just for 1 1/2 day, so we decided we're going back some time. In this year we did for 7 days. We had a great time, have seen a lot of interesting things, met our Pard Arie, visit the De Young Museum and walked "The Bridge".  Maybe we will go back for a longer time. We lost our heart in San Francisco.

Thanks for sharing :-)

I have always found San Francisco to be a beautiful town. I hope you had the opportunity to visit China Town.

When the dot coms were booming and money flowed like water I kept getting sent out to the Bay area for various company shindigs and glamour school, I would bring my wife for the weekend and we particularly enjoy visiting at a couple of restaurants, two particular shops, and the Ten Ren Tea company.  We have made some wonderful "long distance friends".

Joe, you should have stopped by for a visit.  I'm only about 750 miles south of San Francisco.   :o

Glad you had fun in my state.  Love to Miss Lis.
People like me are the reason people like you have the right to bitch about people like me.

Sorry, Tom. we're in S.F. by foot and walked a lot. No time to pick a airplane to L.A.  ;D Next time  ::) we'll think about visiting you.  ;D Greetings for Shawna.
