All Day Trip


We went to see the Blue Angels yesterday in SF.



SF really dropped the ball on public transportation. We took the train which was standing room only. That took 30 minutes, but then it took us another 3.5 hours to finally get to our seats at the Marina. Streetcar after streetcar was full and they only got us to Pier 39. At which point there was nothing: no buses running and two taxis refused to drive us anywhere near the Marina. They both said "NOT POSSIBLE" and drove away mid-sentence! So we hoofed it two miles there and back. At the end, we got a ride home: total transportation time was 7 hours for a one-hour air show and dinner. Wowzers!


Even though I spent most of my day traveling, I managed to take a few pictures.
