We went to San Fransisco on our honeymoon! (we drove across the US .... when you marry a school teacher, you don't go to Hawaii or anything). LOL

I loved visiting there. Beautiful city. Wish I could go back some day.

Except for the traffic. Driving in the city can be fairly intense, especially around the commute. I like coming here to take photos because I only have to cross the Golden Gate from the Marin side, hang an immediate right, and I'm where I want to be.

I'm glad you got to visit; I hope you'll be able to return in the future.

Are you on the East Coast? We've had some very good times back there; in fact, we'll be going to Washington D.C. in April, and to Boston in September. The rain keeps everything so lush back there!

Atherton is a beautiful area. One of the pricier areas to buy a home in the bay Area these days.

I'm glad that you enjoyed the photo.

and I also confess I love SF. My sis used to live there, and I thought it was magical (but I didn't drive). Good times!

Hopefully, you'll make it back up here one of these days. We'll have a room ready for ya, and a couple of willing tour guides.

I haven’t been to San Francisco since I was four...hundreds and hundreds of moons ago. On my bucket list and photos like this move it up the list

Just curious -- have you tried taking any from the north end of the bridge looking back toward the city?

I had some photos I was pretty happy with taken from Vista Point, and from Battery Spencer. I lost about 90% of my photos when Image Shack deleted them. A painful lesson about storing images somewhere other than the net.
