St. Francisco

San Francisco was amazing!
We were invited to Thanksgiving Dinner on November 22 by Bjoerns relatives to Monterey which is south of San Francisco, but as we had to be in Vancouver by the 26th because our insurance was running out by then, we visited San Francisco first, to have some more time there.


Yeah, that's what I'm talking about... the Golden Gate Bridge...



Lombard Street with its narrow path down the hills of SF through flowers...



and Chinatown... that was the best actually - the biggest Chinatown of the USA. We loved to have a look in all the stores, buy cheap Chinese food which is sometimes strange and bad tasting...



 and sometimes veeery good:



In the last nights around San Francisco we had a little bit more badluck than usual:
To one Walmart we came back for our second night and a security guy was waiting at the front door, saying: Soory, we are clozzzzed.
Then we asked if we can stay one more night on the parking lot, but he said: Only once in a monththth.

Ok, we drove off to another Walmart and finally got some sleep...

A security guy stands outside of the car. It's 1am. Bjoern opens a window: Hello, ser, what'sup?
"I've decided to let you know that we have a non-overnight parking policy on our premises"
In other words: Vanish!
Ok, that's what we did, and after another hour of driving, we finally found our sleep... on a third Walmart.

What a day!
