Cheers guys, the trip is amazing, did the San Fran cable cars today went up into China town. Some of the hill streets in San Fran are unbelievable in places the are about a 40 degree slope, Heavy on car brakes I would imagine. Carmel tomorrow looking forward to the drive down the coast. First thing this morning got a cab to The Golden Gate Bridge and walked about halfway across and decided not to complete the whole bridge as it about one hour ten minutes to do the return journey. Lots of surfers surfing by the bridge, daughter was in her element watching them she's a surfer but said she would not be happy surfing up onto massive great rocks like theses guys were doing. Still not seen any Yammys, Ducati, Suzuki, Kwackers loads of Harley's, the joke is if you want to increase the top speed of your Harley put a smaller plough on the back.
People seem very friendly even opposing teams at some of the games (baseball) we have been to, real rivalry and enthusiasm, but no anger or hatred like there is here at some of our football matches. We could learn a thing or two from these guys. People generally want to be helpful and are polite. One guy while we were waiting for the cable car today was busking, playing guitar and singing and he came out with the line ' if you like what you hear pop a dollar in the can, if you don't like what you hear you can take one out just don't let me get eye contact with you. He played well and sang well he also had muscles in places that I don't even have places, so I dropped a buck in his can. :lol
