San Francisco, CA - April 2026

 A beautiful, clear day exploring San Francisco's main attractions. 

The Presidio and the Golen Gate Bridge:

Yep! You can't visit SF without getting the famous clam chowder in a sourdough bread bowl!

Making it to Pier 39.

Leaving the waterfront, we continue to the next stop: "Palace of Fine Arts"

Palace of Fine Arts, a massive Greco-Roman-style landmark with open rotunda and colonade.

The "Palace" sitting right next to a beautiful and peaceful lagoon, was built for Panama-Pacific International Exposition in 1915 to exhibit works of art.



We also made a stop at the historic Ghirardelli Square, test-drove the legendary curves of Lombard Street, and finished the day taking in the breathtaking, panoramic views of the skyline from Twin Peaks.  



The iconic Columbus Tower (Sentinel Building) and Transamerica Pyramid on Columbus Avenue dominate the San Francisco skyline.
