U.S. Road Trip 1 - San Francisco

In March 2001, I decided to go on a one month road trip across the U.S. This was my first big vacation alone.

First stop was San Francisco. I stayed in a motel on Market St. Walked up and downhill til my knees went. Met a friend of a friend and we drove to the Pacific coast and to Napa - which was great but I wasn't much of a wine drinker. Went clubbing every night.

Oh and almost got mugged once. Almost. This guy was hiding in a corner, but I saw him and bitched at him before he could surprise me so he decided I'm not worth the trouble.

Pictured here: Birds at dusk at by the Golden Gate bridge, a van by the Pacific Coast, endless Transmerica building, the clock tower at the ferry building, the Palace of the Fine Arts, St. Peter and Paul Church, a boat sailing above the houses and, to the left, just why it's hard to stay straight in San Francisco.
