When you visit San Francisco sometime, you'll have to go to the Japanese Tea Garden and the neighboring Botannical Gardens..great place for photographs. Of course, the whole city is just beautiful. I fell in love with it when I had a layover, at 18, en route to Hawaii and spent a few hours, in a taxi, sightseeing. I knew, then, that I'd live here someday. I've been here over 33 years now ( I'm 65! ) and I still am in love with the Bay area.RNSANEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02841873957894861725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35775558.post-2730540776817623192010-05-24T11:07:34.852-07:002010-05-24T11:07:34.852-07:00Travelingjoan - my camera seems to be on the blitz...Travelingjoan - my camera seems to be on the blitz after being dropped one too many times.
