TIME TO SAY GOODBYE TO SAN FRANCISCO

It has been a fun experience just being a tourist in S.F. We didn't do all the things that we planned but we managed to fit in the things that were most important to Afram and Philippe. After breakfast this morning at a French cafe we drove to Oakland for an Iranian lunch with long time friends of Roger. What they call "lunch", I describe more as a banquet so tonight we're talking about a snack instead of dinner.

We did the final tourist thing by going to Pier 39 (probably a mistake because it's more appropriate for people with children.) but we're kids at heart so we still had fun. Afram is fascinated with the crooked street, Lombard, so we managed to find a parking place right at the bottom (a miracle) so we could walk part of the way up. Then we learned how to get to Hyde Street where we could actually drive down Lombard so we were like kids (again) enjoying the experience. Tomorrow we're looking forward to a drive to Sonoma to have lunch and do some wine tasting - then it's time to head back to Portland.
