So, last day in San Fran today, headed out to Ocean Beach, which was freezing cold but some great views out to the Pacific and had lunch in a great little diner that was part Thai, part American place that played instrumental versions of Don't Cry for Me Argentina throughout my meal. I then had a walk through Golden Gate park which is really nice, but far too big to spend just one day exploring. The Pacific Ocean is an incredible thing to see close up, I kept getting lines of Anne Sexton in my head:
'The sea swings in like an iron gate'... 'the wind falls in like stones'
Everything's packed up and I'm off to Truckee tomorrow morning, a small town just outside Lake Tahoe. After just one night there it's on to Salt Lake City for a couple of nights, which should definitely be interesting. This is where the real travelling starts I guess, after the security of staying in one place for over a week.
Onwards
