Our last morning in San Francisco, I went out early to photograph the sunrise from Telegraph Hill. I arrived there when it was still dark, and was able to enjoy the morning's show! This included a light trail from a plane taking off from San Francisco International Airport.

A gate in the ancient Roman Aurelian walls, named after the church San Giovanni in Laterano, just a stone's throw away. So the wall is ancient, it was built 271-275 A.D. and named after the emperor Aurelian (Aurelianus). The gate is not the original from that time, the gate for this part of the wall is the Porta Asinaria that is right next to this one. But with all the traffic to the church the pope decided to have a new gate built in the 1570s, and the result is this one - inaugurated in 1574 (probably more practical but very much less imposing than the Asinaria one which is situated just beside it - and looks like this www.flickr.com/photos/dameboudicca/50779414817/
A view of the San Francisco - Oakland Bay Bridge. I used to drive across this bridge daily. Fortunately, on October 17, 1989, I was working in the East Bay, and actually came home from work early (to watch the baseball World Series between teams from Oakland and San Francisco). Shortly after 5 pm, a large earthquake struck, causing considerable damage, injury and loss of life. It was the strongest earthquake I ever experienced. A portion of the eastern section of the Bay Bridge collapsed that day, along with a double decker freeway (known as the Cypress Structure) in Oakland (which I also regularly used). Just goes to show you how quickly life can change. Photos of the damage to the bridge and freeway can be seen in the article on Wikipedia. The collapse of the Cypress Structure accounted for more deaths than any other incident during the earthquake. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1989_Loma_Prieta_earthquake.

Cuando hace ya aƱos, en mi juventud, conocĆ la hermosa ciudad guipuzcoana, sentĆ una bonita sensaciĆ³n que emanaba de cada rincĆ³n que mis ojos escrutaban en ese paisaje que me enganchĆ³ a primera vista, esa preciosa bahĆa semi encerrada por la pequeƱa isla de Santa Clara, a mitad de camino entre las aguas que tocan la orilla oriental con el Paseo Nuevo del Monte Urgull, donde desde su altura, erigido sobre el castillo de La Mota, la gran imagen del Sagrado CorazĆ³n con su gesto bendiciendo la ciudad, luce en las noches sobre la BahĆa de La Concha y la otra zona donde al final de la playa de Ondarreta, el Peine del viento del escultor Chillida, acaricia la brisa o sujeta el fuerte viento que sopla a los pies del Monte Igueldo...desde su altura tomĆ© estas vistas en una maƱana de imborrable recuerdo para mĆ
San Francisco, "The City by the Bay" covers only 47 square miles (121.4 km ) and has a population of less than 900 thousand, but it ranks as one of the greatest cities in the world. A popular tourist destination, it is known for its cool foggy summers, steep rolling hills, eclectic architecture and landmarks, including the Golden Gate Bridge, cable cars, the former Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary, Fisherman's Wharf, and its Chinatown district.
It was founded in 1776 by colonists from Spain who were sent to establish religious missions in the New World. In 1821 after the Mexican War of Independence against Spain, it became a territory of Mexico until 1846 when it was ceded to the United States. The California Gold Rush of 1849 brought rapid growth, making it the largest city on the West Coast at the time. In 1906 most of the city was destroyed by an earthquake and fire, but it was quickly rebuilt. It was a major port of embarkation for service members during WWII.

one of my favorite drives is along Route 152 that connects the big freeways that go up and down California. It crosses past farmstands, hills, and an impressive reservoir.
