Day 16






San Francisco, CA—This morning we stopped at a roadside tie-dye store and we each got a tie dyed shirt as well as smoked elk and buffalo jerky. It was tastey.

Then we stopped briefly in San Francisco to see the sights. It took us an hour just to find a parking spot for our awkwardly large RV. We ate at a fancy Italian place and afterwards just strolled through a bit of the city. San Francisco is ridiculously hilly, but surprisingly it wasn’t hot and there were actually a lot of trees and suburban-type houses.

On our way to eat we saw Alcatraz Island, which used to be a prison where they kept hardened criminals. We posed for a picture in front of it. Also in one picture is Jonas loading my leg into a cannon we found in the streets.

One of the sights we saw in San Francisco was Lombard Street. At one point, the whole street just winds randomly back and forth down one block. It’s completely pointless and on the other side of that was a ridiculously steep hill. Just take a look at the pictures for photographic evidence. We saw the Golden Gate Bridge before we drove across it and tried to get a picture, but it was really hazy out so we failed.

Now we’re going a little further before stopping for the night in Bodega Bay.
