San Fransisco, california!


Hello!! This blog is about San Francisco. San Francisco is a city in the state of California in USA. As already mentioned before this blog is aimed to provide information about San Francisco if you were thinking of spending your holiday there.
In December 2012, I visited San Francisco for a month & a half, which was great fun as I got to see my family, friends & went to many great places in San Francisco.
San Francisco has a population number of 776,733, which means that it is not overpopulated when compared to another city like New York City.
Mark Twain once said, "If you don’t like the weather in New England, wait a few minutes." However this is not the case in San Francisco, as for the most part the weather in San Francisco is temperate & predictable. It has its jumps every now & then of course, but in general the weather in San Francisco is autumn, where it’s not too cold but doesn’t get hot either. This is a good thing as the consistency in the weather allows you to not need to pack many items of clothing when visiting.
There are many great places in San Francisco, which I was glad that I was able to visit most of them. Great places to visit in San Francisco include: The Golden Gate Bridge, wax museum, Alcatraz, Fisherman’s wharf & plenty more!!
The Golden Gate Bridge is the most recognized landmark in San Francisco. The Golden Gate Bridge opened in 1937. & every year more than 9 million visitors cross the 2737metres (1.7 mile) bridge either by car, bike or by foot.




The wax museum was an amazing place to go to, as it included wax figures ranging from celebrities to presidents to Religious leaders to sport players & it even had a wax figure of Jack & Rose!!





San Francisco is also a great family destination when travelling with your entire family, especially with young kids, as it has many places for kids & their parents to have fun at. One place that stood out the most for me that is great fun for kids is Chuck E Cheese!!
Chuck E Cheese is a pizza place that also has arcade games that use tokens which come with the food you order. It also has fun shows. This means kids can have fun & play while their parents sit down relax & talk WHILE EATING PIZZA :D PS they have other delicious food if you are not a fan of pizza :)



 

Another thing that I thought was great about San Francisco are the malls. Every mall is decorated in a different way, which meant that every mall has something special about it. What is also great is the variety of stores every mall has. You can find plenty of stores that sell all type of things at a reasonable price.
This was my blog about San Francisco, hope it was informative & gave you an idea of the city & encouraged you to visit it one day !!
