San Francisco is a mad city – inhabited for the most part by perfectly insane people whose women are of a remarkable beauty. ~ Rudyard Kipling

A Walking Day in San Francisco

Spent a lovely day walking in San Francisco today. It was a full test of being back to normal, a six mile walk, even if I did avoid the biggest hills in the city. I also rewarded the longest walk since my surgery eleven weeks ago with two pizza stops.

It was a nice walk up from the Civic Center/UN Plaza, up through Hayes Valley, over Russian Hill via Polk to Ghirardelli Square where I took some time to just sit by the bay for a time.

Then I rolled up to Pier 39 and hit Amici’s for my second pizza stop of the day. And finally walked back up the Embarcadero and hit back to the BART Station and home. I love walking in the city, you never know what you’ll see, today I watch a golden retriever go nuts because it encountered a robot dog. Here’s a little set of photos from the walk today.
