We arrived in San Francisco yesterday afternoon and today was our first day out exploring the city. Our hotel is near to the Powell Street cable car terminus and we walked down to watch the cable cars being turned round before catching one all the way to the other end at Fisherman's Wharf.
As we walked from the terminus we spotted the Duck Tour shop and booked a ride at 10am. The trip took us round some of the city and out in the bay as well. Our driver / guide, Greg, was very informative and entertaining and the 90 minute tour passed by very quickly.
After that, we walked round the area, including Pier 39 where the sea lions are - a smelly but very interesting sight!
We then walked to the Cable Car Museum and saw the cable mechanism and how the system works, before heading back to the hotel worn out through walking many miles.
