Simply awesome, haf!!! I'm speechless.

Nice pics! Very fun. Funny for me to see your downtown Campbell pictures since I work at an ad agency right around the corner from there!

Haf, once again your eye on the world amazes me.

One of these days I have to get to SanFran and other spots in California. I want to spend a couple weeks there. I have some friends that can show me all the 'good' stuff and avoid the touristy things.

I've seen the sun rise over the ocean enough times. I need to see it set at least once before I die. :smile:

Wow, great photos. I miss the bay area. I can't wait to move back up there!

One of the best looking cities in the world

Great shots!!

I like the one in Chinatown with the fire dept thingy in the foreground.

I did a double take on the beer samples. They looked like a full-size glass, and I'm thinking to myself: "dang, haf got shitfaced!"

Join NAM and see the world!

Thanks hafid!

Awesome pics, thanks

The black and white shots are among the best I have seen of those subjects (except the pub--why so many pub shots? Hmmm.) and I have seen hundreds. If I had driven you around in my MINI you might have focussed more on the potholes. Thanks for the pics.

Thanks for the comments. Rogue is my favorite brewery, and so that was a definite stop on this journey. we actually went twice in one day

I absolutely ADORE this place. I must move there!

Again, thanks for the comments.

I would have to say that San Fransisco and the surrounding area is one of the most beautiful places in America. I love it to, and would love to move there except for the cost.

I can't believe this is your first ever trip. You have never been anywhere else? Even outside of your city?

MiniCD · #12 05-31-2005, 02:16 PM

Great pics. I couldn't think what was wrong, then it hit me, the sky is blue in those pictures!

Very nice tour of the city - thanks for sharing your holiday with us. Glad you had such a fantastic time.

I LOVE stacks in Campbell, we were regulars on the weekends up until 6 months ago!!

Great pics!

Beautiful photos!! Reminds me, I haven't been to Coit Tower in a while.

Next time you (or any other NAM members) come to the S.F. Bay Area, let me know and maybe we can have a get together.

ahh... Testarossa Vineyards, I work up the same driveway at the buildings at the top of the hill. Great view huh?

Great shots of my wife and my favorite city. We love staying there when we can. We stay at a B/B on Bush St. called the White Swan. We can't wait to come back. Unfortunatly we always fly in since we live so far away. Would be fun to drive MiamiMini around town some day. As it is, we usually rent a car for only a day or two usually, then get a multi-day pass for the trolly's, cable cars, and bus line. Gives us plenty of freedom to get around and they are fun to ride.

Thanks for reminding us why we love the place so much.

Thanks for the comments! It's really quite nice to bring back so many memories. I have written about the trip in my blog....
