A well deserved lie in after being up so early with the bear yesterday, meant we left the hotel in time for lunch! Heading to Japantown, we stopped for a sushi lunch. We then strolled the streets of San Francisco, vaguely heading for the park via the hippy area of Haight Ashbury. This was a mix of tramps and incense burning - one tramp even exclaiming ‘it’s $20 a look’. No thank you, smelly man. Not giving up though, he then shouted from his seated position on the floor ‘What about your wallet?‘ That has to be the worst, laziest attempt at a mugging we have ever witnessed! We actually chuckled as we sauntered away! This was a very relaxing afternoon, in preparation for the Napa Valley wine tour we have booked for tomorrow! We meandered back through the dodgy part of town, including passing a mental man who still had his hospital pyjamas on! Feeling quite traumatised by the amount of mental illness and smelly tramps in San Fran, we headed to a bar for an aperitif while deciding where to eat in our San Fran guide. Deciding on an Asian themed day, we headed to an Indonesian restaurant just up the road. After the waiter’s recommendation and Lynne’s excellent choosing skills, we had a delight of a meal. Matthew even stated it could possibly be his #2 of the trip (Helen’s steak being #1). Off to bed, after watching a DVD from reception.
