I love SF !!!



Yesterday was a glorious day in San Francisco! The weather was a perfect 72 degrees, sunny, blue sky with a few cumulus clouds, a light breeze, and the SF Giants were returning home victorious as World Series champions. The positive energy everywhere was palpable.



I headed down to the Civic Center area where thousands were gathering in various orange and black attire (Halloween and Giants colors mixing as one) - all attempting to get a glimpse of the winners.



I did manage to see the players ride by in the cable car - followed by families and people of power. A bit tricky to see over all the heads and even more cell phone cameras suspended in the air!

The return home provided a challenge with all of the trains and buses burgeoning with fans - so I decided to opt for walking (about 5 miles with one major hill and several little ones). Here are two photos from my walk - a large item (huge sculpture made of chains) and a teeny house squeezed between bigger buildings.

The house is for sale (1 bedroom, 1 bath, no garage) - guess how much they are asking for it???
