San Francisco
After a stopoff in Santa Clara in the middle of Silicon Valley (I saw where eBay and Yahoo make their home), I continued down Highway 101 to have my first sight of the city of San Francisco!
Just up from the Giants baseball stadium is my lovely hotel, complements of Marriott points earned in my previous job (I knew there were some benefits to being a Consultant).
As I was trying to find some parking for my car - impossible, I ended up driving around SF in the pouring rain. Those of you who know me well will be aware of my slight phobia of bridges, which is why I had a tiny moment of panic when I took this picture.

The San Francisco Bay bridge is not as famous as its counterpart, the Golden Gate bridge which I will attempt to see (though not drive over) today.
I had dinner with some friends of a friend from my course who is also in SF at the moment. It was so nice to meet some real people who live and work here and pretty cool to chat techie stuff with people who work in the Silicon Valley. Really great people.
I really like San Francisco.
