  • San Francisco is one of my favorite places to travel during the Christmas season. Amie and I got a chance to spend three days there this year and had a lot of fun eating, hiking and exploring the city. We made a vlog type video to show you the trip, hope you enjoy it!
    Some of the spots we visit:
    Museum of Ice Cream
    SantaCon
    Grace Cathedral
    Bobs Donuts
    Mr. Holmes Bakehouse
    Angel Island State Park
    Fairmont Gingerbread House
    Clift Royal Sonesta Hotel
    The Codmother Fish and Chips
    Angel Island video is not done yet but it should be up next week and I will link to it here.

    San Francisco is awesome! Surprised you didn’t visit Chinatown. Great place to visit and I’m looking forward to going back. I’m from the Los Angeles San Gabriel Valley area. Fisherman’s Wharf was very cool. Love the architecture and history.

      @California Through My Lens ... since you appear to like ice cream, taquerias and other great unique place to eat ... the next time you make it up to The City ... try the Ice Cream Bar in Cole Valley, Pancho Villa’s just up from the 16th Street BART station ... and take an Uber to The Old Clam House on Bayshore! I’ve been to these places scores of times!!

    Loved that Museum of Ice Cream! That looks awesome. Didn’t realize that there was a gingerbread house inside the hotel. Would have definitely gone in there. I’d pick anything blueberry if I got ice cream. We used to go to Grace Cathedral’s organ and brass concert every year. It was a favorite of mine. I don’t think that they are doing it anymore though. Miss it for the holidays. Looks like the weather was very rainy when you were there. Have not been to Angel Island. Always wanted to do that and bring our tandem bike with us so that we could use it to get around. That was a quick trip to Angel Island. Boudin is my favorite sour dough bread. Sure miss that in the south. :’(.

    • @californiathroughmylens
      @californiathroughmylens  5 років тому

      Thanks for the great comment and for watching the video. Blueberry is a good call, I love that as well. The organ concert sounds like it would be really cool, I haven't been to anything like that before but would love to go. Also, a tandem bike would be great to ride on Angel Island, I am not sure how Amie and I would do on one of those though haha.

    Well done sir, well done! I'm surprised you guys didn't visit the Musee' Mecanique while at Fisherman's Wharf. Amazing place loaded with old time mechanical arcade games and artifacts. It also has a bunch of vintage classic video games. There's an original "Asteroids" that looks brand new! It's just a short walk from the Boudin bakery. Also, doesn't your arm get tired from holding your camera straight out like that? 😉

    • @californiathroughmylens

    Next time for ice cream go to Mitchell’s on San Jose in the Mission! True local spot! And best Taquería El Farolito on Mission and onondaga st! That’s where the locals go! Just catch our best Muni line the 14 mission! If you want the best sandwiches in San Francisco go to Roxie’s San Jose and San Juan! Our family tradition Roxie’s then Mitchell’s!

      Day trip only, unless you wanna camp. It's an expensive ferry ride...or a crafty kayak expedition to get there.

    We are thinking of a San Fran trip but all I see and read is how the city is overrun with homeless people and not very safe - now is this an overblown media/news thing or is it just a certain area or areas. The city seems fine in the videos I have seen on this channel.

    • @huntrrams
      @huntrrams 5 років тому +2

      Same how media portrays Chicago as a giant ghetto but in reality it’s the neighborhoods you pass by(South Side and West Side). Same with SF, it decent just research which neighborhood to walk or avoid.

      I know it’s been a year but if you haven’t yet visited, I wouldn’t let your concerns stop you from coming once restrictions are lifted. There are 36 officially recognized neighborhoods in SF. I’d say ~7 are rough. There are homeless people in other neighborhoods too and while sometimes weird they’re mostly not a danger to anyone. Car break-ins are a thing, but just don’t leave valuables out, or skip the car altogether. SF is still one of the most walkable, architecturally varied, diverse cities in the country with tons of sights to see and things to eat. Calling it overrun is an overstatement :) Just look up what neighborhoods are shady, bring a jacket and good walking shoes, and you’ll be fine!
