San Francisco

I was on summer vacation San Francisco was the destination The warm breeze, spring in the air All looked bright and fair The crooked street I so wanted to meet And drive thru the China bazaar Looking at exotic filled jars The cable car was an instant hit It was hard to get in and fit The heather farm a heavenly abode Where flowers grew all along the road Napa valley took my heart From the wines I didn’t want to part But it was the awesome Golden Gate Bridge And its green overlooking ridge That was the star of the tour Left me asking for more A vacation forever in my mind For the tender memories left behind

tahera, I finally got to see SF when my hubbie moved us out there in '85. I lived only half an hour from it. I LOVE that city. It could be the best city in the U.S because of the atmosphere of the different city parts and didn't you just love the entertainers on the pier? congrats on your win.
