San Francisco

Le moins que l'on puisse dire, c'est que San Franciso est loin de nous avoir emballés. C'est une ville sale, dangereuse et dans laquelle regne une misere incroyable. J'ajouterai egalement que la plupart des gens que nous avons cotoyes dans cette ville, etaient antipatiques.

Evidemment, apres avoir passe presque deux semaines dans la nature, cela ne pouvait que nous changer desagreablement.

Nous avons quand meme reussi a trouver des coins sympa. Nos coups de coeur : Hashburry Heights (vous savez, la ou se trouvent les maisons que l'on nous montre tout le temps ; comme dans "Les rues de San Francisco), ancien quartier hippie, et les "house boats", mais qui eux ne sont pas a San Francisco meme, mais a Sausalito, de l'autre cote du Golden Gate Bridge.

Au fait, quand on voit dans les films, des gens monter et descendre en marche des cable-cars, je peux vous dire que c'est faux et archi-faux. Il est strictement interdit de monter en marche, par mesure de securite et le "bell man" (l'employe qui sonne la cloche aux intersections et qui vend les tickets) veille au grain. De meme qu'il empechera de monter des usagers, s'il n'y a plus de place. En revanche, il est vrai que l'on peut voyager sur les marche-pieds (en ce qui me concerne... meme pas en reve ! ). Mon mari l'a fait et j'avais presque aussi peur que si c'était moi !

The less we can say is that we disliked SF. It's a dirty and dangerous city, with a high level of misery. I should add also, that most of the people we met there were not nice at all. I think they forget that the tourists make them live.

Of course, after spending almost two weeks in the nature, the change was hard.

We managed to find some nice places to visit, like hasburry Heights or the house boats. Those ones are not in SF but in Sausolito, on the other side of the Golden Gate Bridge.

BTW, when we see people, in the movies, jumping in and out the cable as it rides, is FALSE! It's absolutely forbidden for question of safety. The bell man even helps people to come in when the wagon is full. But you are allowed to travel on the "stairs". No, thanks, it's not my cup of tea!  Hubby did it and I was almost as afraid as if it was me!

Je mettrai des photos plus tard. Pictures will come later.
