Not Made in China...

We had 1 day to explore San Francisco and boy did we go all over the place! Here's part of it....

China Town was pretty interesting. Unfortunately for us, we got off the bus at the wrong end and most of the time we were walking up hill...but then again, when are you not walking up hill in San Fran??

It was like you weren't in America any more. Lined with tons and tons of shops filled with pointless stuff. Who buys this stuff? seriously. We had a good time though.  (Negative note: it smelled really bad there)




Both of the statues in the right-hand corner are of Buddha. Hmm... changed just a little bit over the years?

 

The Fortune Cookie Factory is this little tiny shop down a little tiny alley that we almost completely missed. Turns out we were standing right in front of it and we didn't even know it!

We had to pay 50 cents to get these pictures and then $1 for a small bag of cookies that weren't even "made in China"!

It was so interesting to see how the cable cars worked here at the Cable Car Museum.

We even found a sign for the "Powell Mason" line. Who knew that two of our nephews were named after an old cable car line?




We couldn't go to Ghirardelli Square without eating some of their scrumptious chocolate!
The Pumpkin Caramel Squares are really, really good. We ordered "The Gold Rush" because we figured after all the walking we had done that day, we could use a sugar rush ;)
