Today we continued south, arriving at San Francisco by way of the stunning Golden Gate Bridge.  Which is red.  Silly really.

Went down to the beach but didn't think much of it - the sand was horrible and grey!

Stayed the night in a Motel 6 in Oakland, but didn't like it much there - it was a bit scary with bars on all the windows in what seemed like a not terribly friendly neighbourhood.
