Thursday, we strolled the Streets of San Francisco, visited Fisherman's Wharf, Paul had been here 40 years ago in the navy, he wanted to see the tap in mid air, pouring out water in front of Ripleys Believe It or Not, it doesn't exist anymore, just like the Tupperware Museum, Darn! The street people at F/Wharf were great, Trish went to take one guys picture, he said it would cost two dollars to take his picture, we passed, then she went to photograph a calyspo band, again they asked for two dollars, she passed, then we came up to a guy with a sign that said, "I won't lie, I need money for beer!", she went to take his picture and he held two fingers up, I told Trish he also wanted two dollars, he said ,no man, I just want change, that was the peace sign, we seen the last hippie, he is still alive in San Fran. We had fish and chips on the pier with the seagulls and pigeons and weirdos. One bag lady waited behind us for our empty beer cans! They give you the beer in little brown paper bags so you can walk the wharf with it! Our door lock isn't working on the camper, we left it parked on the street for two hours, but we did take our passports and birth cert. with us!
We crossed the Golden Gate bridge in supper hour traffic for Sausolito, then another bout with mountains, when it got dark ,we just pulled over on a turnout and slept illegally , but we slept good! Today we experienced the Wet Coast, as opposed to home, the Best Coast! It rained all day, but we saw giant redwoods, daffodils, and lillies! We are in a marina with all the amenities! A place called Fort Bragg,CA!
