Afternoon by the Bay

The sea lions began occupying Pier 39 nearly 30 years ago.

The Musée Mécanique moved to Fisherman's Wharf in 2002.

It had been six years since I'd given a tour of San Francisco to visitors. A relative was here for the day, and we spent the afternoon walking around Fisherman's Wharf.

My younger, more energetic self might have attempted the one-day San Francisco Quickie Tour, but the traffic and parking are a lot more difficult today. Besides, she'll be back, and it's good to leave something for next time.
