San Diego, San Francisco and Seattle - #8 - August 30 to September 17/2018...

Thursday, Sept 6^th – we went for breakfast at Roxanne’s, a coffee shop right next to the hotel - very good.  Then we walked to the Cable Car Museum – this is free, and very interesting.  The Streetcar cables run under the streets outside, and the Museum runs the machinery to keep them going.  

The streets are so steep, hard to walk, but you will be amazed at the architecture you will see.  Then to Grace Cathedral – 10 minute walk from the Cable Car Museum – magnificent.

We took a cab going to the Pier, listened to the Cab Driver’s advice, and went to Tadich Grill for lunch - The Oldest Restaurant in California.   Very busy during lunch time – we waited by the door for maybe half an hour, but did not mind waiting.  We thought the restaurant was quite small, but when seated, lots of tables in little rooms.  I had liver and onions and iced tea ($27) – excellent restaurant.

Then we walked to the Ferry Building, about 10 minutes away, and looked around in there.  We walked down the piers to Pier 41 to pick up our Alcatraz tickets.  Long walk, but lots of company with the many tourists.   

We took a cab back, rested, and then walked to a movie.  After that, walked back to a Pizza place (excellent) kitty corner to the Hotel.
