Theme Day: Public Transportation

What reflects public transportation in San Francisco uniquely? The Cable Car. Although it's more a tourist attraction it's also being used as public transportation for locals.

Have a seat ....

... take a rest. Have a good weekend.

Bernal Heights Street Fair

Street Fair in one of SF's neighborhoods. Unfortunately not the best weather today and taking the picture with my phone makes it even darker and more miserable than it actually was.

Painting

Reality, painting of reality and picture with both.

Theme day: Graffiti

Graffiti is everywhere, even inside a mailbox.

shopping cart underneath

I wonder who's able to push this thing around? This kind of shopping carts loaded with plastic bags are usually used by homeless people to carry their stuff stowed away in plastic bags with them. However this one was just sitting there on the sidewalk, abandoned by it's owner.

inside Moscone Center West

The Moscone Center is a place where a lot of conferences, forums take place. Big place with a lot of space for keynotes, a showroom and technical sessions.

Church on Church

Meanwhile not only the "C" in Church is missing, the whole building/church got demolished. It's been a while since that happened. I always liked the blue building, not it's an empty space and they are going to build apartments there.

Farmers Market II

Another picture from the Farmers Market I mentioned yesterday. This time with the SF-Oakland Bay Bridge in the background.

Ferry Plaza Farmers Market

This month's Theme Day at City Daily Photo Blog is open markets. I know, I'm way too late for the first of the month's picture. However I went Saturday to the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market, so I thought I take a picture of the market and the "Ferry Building" along "The Embarcadero". Unfortunately the weather wasn't too good and the fog was still in.

Fishing crabs

I'm back in the US and in this beautiful city. Today I went to the beach and saw these people fishing crabs. They were successful though.

Statue

I'm leaving tomorrow, to go on vacation in Germany, seeing friends and family. I will be back mid August. I wish everyone visiting my blog a peaceful and happy time. See you then.

swing

I saw this swing in front of the house with the funny sign, I posted last month.

Worl Cup Final

San Francisco Recreation & Parks teamed up with AMERICA SCORES, and TeacherBus and put a giant screen in front of the Civic Center Plaza! The game was about to begin a couple of minutes when I took the picture.
Now the World Cup 2010 is over and Spain won the cup!

(Look at that gray sky and I got a sunburn - damn!)

Shoes in a window

and no, it's not a shoe store it's an appartment.

bike in tree

Does a tree grow bikes. No! Someone put it up there. Why would someone put a bike on a tree? A bike someone also snatched away the wheels? I suspect it's stolen and hidden.

Theme Day: Reflections

I posted a similar picture last year. The garbage can reflects my camera, the street with houses and the chairs and benches outside the coffee place. It's Martha & Bros, a coffee place in Noe Valley. Most of the times the place is packed with people chatting over a cup of great coffee.

another funny sign

The sign is not very sharp but very small and not in focus. In case it's difficult to read, here's what it says: "I Child-Proofed My House. BUT THEY STILL GET IN."

Noe Bagel

in, guess where, Noe Valley, one of the neighborhoods in San Francisco. The place is on 24th street, right in the heart of "downtown" Noe. That's one of the places where you can get your breakfast bagel from and while eating it, sit on the bench outside.

The She's

I don't know what it was, but there was a little show going on in this little neighborhood place: The She's playing and a little zoo for kids in the parking lot.
