Good bye San Fran

Well we made the most of our last day in San Francisco. We got up and took Über to the North Vista of the Golden gate Bridge. We walked the 2.1 miles across the bridge which was really cool to most of us, a little scary to Kayla. When we got off the bridge, we had a little trouble getting over to find us but the second car finally did. He took us to Dragon gate in Chinatown via a quick drive down Lombard Street which was cool and pepped up our tired tourists. We arrived at Dragon Gate in Chinatown and we're ready for some food. The streets were strung with lanterns, the older men gathered around an exciting game of chess in the park and shops everywhere. It was especially exciting to go into a shop and have the lady say she had more purses downstairs. We walked downstairs and another lady moved some shelves and opened the door to lead us in to be fake purses. We all shopped successfully then remembered we were hungry. We walked a few blocks to an awesome Chinese restaurant. After lunch, we decided to start moms walking tour. We took a slight detour to the Golden gate fortune cookie company that was pretty cool. There were two ladies making the fortune cookies right there in front of you. You could put your message on a piece of paper and they put it in a fortune cookie for you. Enjoy the pictures, they cost two dollars to take!! We left Chinatown with purses, fortunes and full bellies and headed towards Nob Hill. We passed the cafe where Francis Coppala wrote the Godfather Screenplay then climbed to Telegraph Hill. We went all the way to Coit Tower via the Steps of Greenwich and were thoroughly winded. The streets of San Francisco are STEEP! It was about a 2.5 mile walk. We started walking back to Union square to end our day shopping and one of us was simply too tired. We had to call Über for the last mile. We finally made it to all of the shopping and stayed into the evening. We got our last Uber ride back and the reaction from the drivers when they find out we've come from Florida in an RV never gets old. They just can't believe it!
San Francisco is a beautiful city and we have enjoyed our time here.
