Early Morning Walk

Walked this morning on the Embarcadero, along the San Francisco Bay. I expected a beautiful sunrise, but forgot the fog. It hung over the city like a veil, light and gentle, giving the city a chance to wake up slowly. It is a runners' paradise - lots of people out this morning, in all shapes, sizes and ages. Walked through the Ferry Terminal, which is a marketplace of many shops, bread, cheese, herbs, tea, produce, meats and fish. People were busy setting up - will definitely be back later when the shops open.

Here's some things I want to do while we are here:

1) Walk on the Golden Gate Bridge
2) Take a ferry somewhere - anywhere - in San Francisco Bay.
3) Visit City Lights Bookstore
4) Eat sourdough bread
5) Try sushi
6) Visit the Japanese Tea Gardens in Golden Gate Park

We did the first two things on our list yesterday - lunch at the Waterfront Restaurant, wine in the hotel and then the Giants baseball game at AT&T Park. Pictures to follow on that - it was a hoot! Baseball here is a little different than in NYC.
