Travel memories... Cars, restaurants, ocean beaches at San Francisco USA

in #travel7 years ago

Today I will share various topics from my SF tour. We made a visit to some city near SF like Palo Alto to see the where the Silicon valley companies are working, and how the atmosphere looks like there. It was an amazing trip, we stopped at some beautiful point like on my first picture:

As we don't have so much time we only stopped for minutes, but on these beautiful beaches I could take days, to relax and organize my thoughts.
Finally we arrived to a garage, where one of the big stories started.

We made beautiful panorama and standard pictures whenever stopped.

We was really happy to be there with my wife

I was thinking a lot about this picture, but later realised. It was only 10 celsius outside, and a man run around his car without any clothes. I think he lost a bet.

Before dinner we stopped at the other side of the Golden Gate bridge, to see the city and view

We eat our dinner at The Spinnaker Restaurant

At sunset both the city and the cruises are wonderful!

At the dinner one friend was watching us

We eat Steak and Salmon there, and it was really delicious

While we was in SF, we attended many restaurant. One thing which was weird is the size of everything.
One night my wife wanted to eat a dessert, so she ordered a cupcake, but she cannot imagine the size of a bucket :)

This is why I stayed at the traditional chocolate brownie

What was really cool also from the restaurants is a Brazilian restaurant where we first meet with the Rhodesian menu
It is really simple. Until your card green they continuously bring different meats and slice it from a sword, until you change the card to the red side. From chicken to beef all kind of meats come.

In the last part of this story, I will talk about vehicles. As this was the first travel to US, it was really amazing to see these American cars. In Europe they only seen occasionally.
4 years ago Tesla was really rare to see.

Much more the pimped cars

If we talk about America, there must be a limuzine

And of course some iconic Ford Mustang

The iconic Ford police car, with the aggressive bumpers

A beautiful, not used Camaro

What all children like, the fireman truck

And the iconic cable car of San Francisco

Funny how people hanging on

And how it change the direction

А beautiful view ... I would like to go there)

The last parking space shown in the picture is amazing! I wouldn't grab that spot 'coz the steep gradient might put a strain on the vehicle.

Hey there! I've got a question and also a friendly advice regarding your booster strategy.

I'm not sure if you're aware of the fact that the SBD price is currently at $2.40 in the exchange markets? According to your wallet you invested 65 SBD in this post, which means: 156 USD.

The current payout is at $109.24 from which you'll have to take off 25%, remaining $81.93 for your wallet. Since you chose the split of 50% SBD and 50% Steem, you may reach about $96 in the end.

This means, that you're currently losing 60 USD with this one post due to the fact that you spent so much money in vote buying services.

Your photography is outstanding, you could earn a lot of money with it here passing on these services. If I were you I'd quickly change my strategy...

Steem on :-)

Thanks for the information. I think this investment is also for platform development. The 25% sent to the curators help to grow the platform. I think this also a community support important.

Seems that you didn't understand what I was trying to tell you :-)

I wasn't talking about these 25%, I was rather talking about the money you're losing by sending it to vote trading services like buildawhale. By buying votes from them you don't support the community at all. You spend more money than you're earning.

It's like giving someone a 100 dollar banknote and getting 50 in return :-P

HAVE A NICE TRIP
Ocean Beach is a beach on the west coast of San Francisco, California, United States, bordering the Pacific Ocean. It is adjacent to Golden Gate Park, the Richmond District, and the Sunset District. The Great Highway runs alongside the beach, and the Cliff House and the site of the former Sutro Baths sit at the northern end. The beach is a part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area, which is administered by the National Park Service.

Thanks for this detailed information. It was really a nice trip. We has a plan to go there again, but until our dog lives we cannot go this distance.

good return in the shortest time

wow. very very nice all photo. my friend @cuttie1979

What a beautiful journey! I'm enjoying! I read that you @cuttie1979 are from Budapest! This is my dream city!

Thanks Olga!
I hope you will soon travel here. I really like Ukraine. I was in February in Kiev. It was amazing for me!

A complete tour for the viewers of your picture. Thanks for showing SF through your eyes.

Thank you for your blog about San Francisco. I went there a number of years ago on a drive from Reno, Nevada which was only a couple hours drive away. I stayed in Berkeley and took the BART into the city to visit the Golden Gate Bridge, Fisherman's Wharf, Chinatown, and more. So many excellent sites to see in the Golden Gate City. Thank you for bringing back great memories for me.

A nice description. Enjoyed the commentary and pictures. That cupcake was some dessert. Sounds like you had a lot of fun.

Absolutely! I recommend these places! :D

Great post! I would appreciate if you could check out my profile :)

Looks like you had a good time. I haven't been to San Francisco in years. I would consider moving there but its way to expensive for me.

awesome! i guess I should do this kind of photoblog. i like how the images tell the story instead of talking with thousands of texts! Good job dear. thanks for the inspiration.

Very nice landscapes and amazing panoramic views btw!

such a nice trip you did! nice

Lovely pictures. I was in the United States two times and really had a great time there. Never visited San Francisco, though. But l know it's amazing there.

Ah you bring back so many memories of San Francisco holidays and my late wife . We actually ate in the Spinnaker restaurant, but both of us went for the steak, it was delicious... loved hanging on the sides of the street cars as we approached Chinatown, and just a short hop from our hotel at the top of Nob Hill. So Many memories, such great photos... just got to upvote you my friend...thanks

Great post, nice photos! Looks like you are into cars - will be glad if you check my post about classic Americna cars in Cuba ;) Thank you.

everything is beautiful! people, places, cars and the experience! Really love your posts!
