Second session of photos of San Francisco.
Cable car museum
The cable car museum is very interesting (and free). It's quite impressive to see that still today, the cable cars are operated from this point. There is also an interesting part with historical pictures of after the 1906 earthquake.
Golden Gate Park
When you look for the Golden Gate Bridge, it's better not to go to the Golden Gate park instead ! Not that the park is not good (it is !), but it is quite far especially if you're walking, and also the park itself is very, very large. We did not go in all the places. It contains several "attractions" (museums, botanical gardens), but most were closed the day we went there (we went another time for the Academy of Science Museum).
... and that's all. How frustrating, no more Golden Gate ?? Yes, there will be photos of the Golden Gate bridge in the next post ...
