High winds, cold misty fog and un-new yorkish streets were some of the reasons why we left San Francisco. But SF is a nice place to visit, especially when it's one of those rare warm sunny days were the wind isn't howling. We spent the day walking on Chestnut St browsing amongst the well heeled in the Apple Store and the upscale baby store Giggle.
Sydney Walton Square is opened to the public but is privately owned. It's named after a San Francisco banker who lived between 1901-1960. The landscape architect created grassy knolls that is supposed to mimic a meadow and the buildings of downtown San Francisco are the mountains. Interesting idea. We walked to the Ferry Building and had lunch at Gott's - cheese burger and onion rings for me and a free-range organic hot dog for Anna - we split a chocolate milkshake... up the good life! The hot dog wasn't too good - it was a bit bland and my burger was ok but I've had better - most recently at the Garden Grill in Guernyville. We stopped by a couple of chocolate shops - TCHO and Recchiuti Confections.
Finally we wrapped up our SF adventure in Los Gatos. Nice cute downtown with plenty of upscale restaurants and boutique clothing stores. 7pm and it was 81 degrees!
