Science Center @ Golden Gate Bridge Park (Day2 SF)

The second day in San Francisco we headed out to find the Science Center and Golden Gate Bridge. This time we put the Golden Gate Park into the TomTom AND looked at some maps before we hit the road.

The Golden Gate Bridge is beautiful - and amazing.







The Golden Gate Park was interesting... I don't know what they did to their trees - they looked pretty weird. There is an art museum on one side and a science center on the other. The Science center was recommended in several of the tourist books - it is an aquarium/natural science center - lots of fish and critters, and dioramas to show the larger critters. The most amazing thing was the rain forest globe. There was a spiral walkway around the outer edge of the globe - and you walked from the forest floor to the canopy, then took an elevator down to below the pond at the bottom of the rain forest into the primary aquarium area.

We didn't make it to Ghiradelli Square, or ride a trolley car, or walk out on the Golden Gate Bridge, but we had fun and are going to have to come back some day... Brian and Alice were waiting for us at the airport. As we got back to the airport, there was another display of the crazy fog fingers in the hills of San Francisco...
