Hi every one! Today Robby and I tried to go to Alcatraz, but all of the ferries over there were sold out, so instead, we went to China Town and Lombard Street. It was great fun, and lots of walking. China town consisted of like 3 streets filled with Chinese shops and grocery stores. The streets were so crowded with Chinese people and the grocery stores were insane. It all seemed completely unsanitary! There were dead and live fish just sitting on tables in the street and it smelled horrible! The craziest thing we saw was an entire tub filled with the biggest frogs we had ever seen. They were ALIVE and they kept jumping out of the tub and people would just kick them, or pick them up and put them back in! Some lady actually picked through them and put some in a plastic bag, like they were apples or something. She was going to cook them! YUCK! There is a picture of Robby standing in one of the streets in China town and there is a picture of the frogs. We also walked up the steepest street I have ever been on to get to this street called Lombar Street. It is famous for being one of the curviest streets in the world, plus at the top it was the most beautiful view of SF. The picture of the sideways cars is the street we walked up, the camera isn't tilted, the street was just that steep! The last picture is of me standing at the bottom of Lombar street, you can see the cars in a line curving down it behind me. I guess tourist drive to the top and down all day or something, because there was a line of cars the entire time I was there. I felt bad for the people that live in the houses along the street... but not too bad, every drive way had either an old Porsche, a Mustang, or a BMW in it! It was another fun filled day in SF. Next weekend... ALCATRAZ!!!!!
