One thing I don't understand, in all of the USA there is a lack of trash enforcement. Why aren't there police, not regular police but neighborhood watch type, on foot or bike giving people fines for littering, graffiti, etc. In every corner of the earth there is that 20% of humans who will do anything if we as a group allow them, even kill, that's why we need governments and enforcement. It's not hard to enforce this. And it's an environmental disaster. All the trash thrown on the streets ends up in the ocean. If you care about the environment this should be a top priority. This is worse than global warming because micro plastics are now in all living organism, even us. Micoplastics poisoning will literally kill us long before the Earth gets too hot. Why do we tolerate this? Why do we tolerate the 20% of the population that are jerks?

San Francisco looks to be a great walking city.

I was born and raised in the San Francisco bay area and I have always believed San Francisco is the most beautiful city in the world. Yes, it does have a serious homeless problem and drug use is rampant, but what large city doesn't? The view of the Golden Gate bridge coming from the north whether by the highway or from the air is breathtaking.

That's the Tenderloin, most of the City is not bad, especially Russian hill and Nob hill. The Mission is my favorite but at night it gets seedy. The westside is pretty chill, even at night.

The trash and all of the people you see at Fisherman’s Wharf is from tourists. Locals aren’t frequently at the wharf. We don’t hang out there.

Yes, when driving you need good brakes and strong knees for walking the steeps.

Depends on the Sunset when the fog goes away the bridge looks Golden. Each day the Sunset could change the theme.

I visited San Francisco in November and thought it was beautiful! Like all large cities in North America and beyond, there are homeless and many of them use drugs and you did see them but overall it was nice experience with great people. Littering is a difficult problem in some areas I’m sure.

To answer your question about all the litter that you saw when you were walking up into fisherman's wharf, they do have sanitation workers that do clean that up on I think a daily basis. People are so dirty that they litter it up within one day the sanitation company has to come back and clean up again just what they did the other day. Like you said I don't know why people have to be so dirty put your litter in the trash can and there are plenty of those trash cans around the whole area there I don't understand it either.

You mean across the bay towards Oakland? When I first started working in San Francisco (around the time when AT&T Park was about to open), I was surprised that many of my coworkers have never crossed the Bay Bridge to the East Bay.

I lived in san francisco in the 1970s and homes were twice the price of los angeles, an apartment was 200 dollars, in sacramento they were 100. Once i drove over the golden gate bridge with my coffee cup on top of my shell and back to sf.

Next time you visit The City, I suggest you park at a BART station outside of SF and take public transit. My suggestion is get on at Daly City and bus through downtown. It's not helpful on the west side, like Golden Gate Park or Presidio area but you can get to Chinatown, Union Square, and the financial district, etc, without a car. Parking in town is very expensive. Wherever you park, please don't leave anything visible in your vehicle.

Nice watching this, as I grew up in the area, across the bay just outside of Oakland. The island of Alameda.

Too bad she didn’t go a little bit farther North to the town of the Bodega Bay where the Alfred Hitchcock‘s film “The Birds” was filmed but of course the old wharf is gone because it was burned down that you see in the movie. I’ve eaten in that white and orange trim restaurant/bar building on the wharf many a time. We used to camp there on the jetty now called Dorian Beach and were there the night park rangers came and said there was a earthquake in Alaska and they were worried about tsunami’s so everybody had to pack up their trailers and tents and leave. Also about 20 minutes away is the town of Occidental and getting there you’ll pass the town of “Bodega” Where you’ll find the school house still there that was in the movie. If you’re in Occidental I highly highly recommend you eat at the union hotel. I ate there when I was extremely young between six and 10 maybe 12 when we camp and it is the best Italian food serve family style and if are still open because I haven’t lived in California since 2002 but I’m sure they are open(check times). The minestrone soup is the best, Known for of course raviolis and I love the fried raviolis and if you decide and they still have them order ahead of time the banana fritters because they take about 20 minutes to cook.

Your right Joe about the trash I don’t get why you wouldn’t put in a bin I taught my kids always bin rubbish parts of London is the same

Nice video. The drive north on US 101 was the best way to go, as I5 is all freeway up the Central Valley with not much to see except for open farmland. Much more scenic on 101. I hope you stopped along the way, as a straight shot would take at least 6 to 8 hours. I always stop in Pismo Bech, which is about halfway between SF and LA, and spend a night. You did miss out on most of the best parts of The City (as us natives call it). The Tenderloin is just the remnants of a former ghetto, as housing policy from 70 or 80 years ago, made that happen. The fog (our friend, Karl) comes through the Golden Gate at certain times of the year and day(s) due to the hot weather up the Sacramento River and it pulls the cold air from the ocean into the Bay, thus producing the fog. You didn't really show Fisherman's Wharf, as you were walking away from it (east bound) to Pier 39, which is just a tourist trap. Fisherman's Wharf and the fishing fleet is further west on Jefferson Street past Taylor and you missed that entirely. Also, when you turned onto Broadway from Columbus Avenue, you weren't in China Town yet. As you were approaching the Broadway Tunnel, China Town was on your left, or south, and North Beach, which used to be mostly Italian families, was on your right, or north. If you had turned left on Broadway, you would have seen the few remaining topless nightclubs in the City. There's a lot more to see in San Francisco.

someone take me back here, when we were there many years ago, my pal and i took the car round the streets while the rest had a lie-in, wish i had bought more film for my 35mm cameraas i only had 24 in one reel and a 36 exposure obe, took them nearly all on my first 2 days in California, had a great time any way, but I'd go back anytime.

It was a trip being young and driving a stick shift pick-up truck in those hills on the weekends nights.......

Many years ago I would take a van to LAX just get get on a PSA. Plane. And take a van downtown to my father's apartment 200 dollars a month in the. 70s. Such fun just to walk around in Noe . Valley. Such diversity and architecture. that you can become a San Franciscan in one hour,. Something difficult in Los Angeles because every one always reminds themselves they are from somewhere else

This is a cool video. The areas around San Francisco and San Francisco are so beautiful it's amazing. Again, there's so much wilderness that surrounds that City once you leave San Francisco and keep going north it's really beautiful. I just wish that they could tackle the homeless problems that we're having in this country it's not just Oregon and Washington California it's all over. It's just worse in some cities in the United States than it is in the others and I wish we as humans could come up with a solution to get rid of this problem.

I'm an Aussie, and it has been said that San Francisco and Sydney are "sister cities". Frankly, I've never been able to see it (and I've spent time in both - a lot more in Sydney, obviously - though it has been almost four decades since I was in SF). Both cities have a few superficial things in common - they're both harbour cities, they each sport an iconic bridge, they both have a disused prison in the middle of the water, and housing in both is hideously expensive - but overall, they're very different in terms of layout, architecture, culture and overall feel. San Francisco Bay dwarfs Sydney Harbour, the Golden Gate Bridge dwarfs Sydney Harbour Bridge, San Francisco's Chinatown dwarfs Sydney's Chinatown, and Alcatraz dwarfs Fort Denison (a tiny, tiny fort in the middle of Sydney Harbour, built in the penal days and used for a few years to contain the occasional hardcore convict). Sydney actually has a higher population than San Francisco though (3.3 million for SF, 5 million for Sydney). San Francisco is very steep and hilly in places, Sydney is relatively flat. Both cities look nothing alike. So I don't really know where the "sister city" moniker comes from. Apart from the aforementioned rough similarities, both cities are very different places. I really enjoyed my stay in SF, as long ago as it was - met some top people, saw some great sights and had some terrific times. I don't live in Sydney anymore btw, got fed up with it. I'm a proud yokel now, living in a cute little seaside town up the coast. Best move I ever made 😁 Excellent video as always, Lord. All the best to you and your family!

Well unless you guys sort of planed the trip regarding weather, most of the time (about 85% or so) SF is in a fog and it is REALLY REALLY CHILLY because of the cold air and water from the Berring Straits up north in Alaska.

SF is a beautiful and very historic city. It is hard to dislike a city or place, that has so much history and beauty, especially for people like myself, who happen to also be in the LGBTQ community. SF often gets a bad rap for that reason, and for being a bastion for 'Liberals', of which I admittedly am one of those, too. Any more, especially in this day and age, when so many other Americans are desperately trying to take our rights away from us, San Francisco is one of the only cities in America, where LGBTQ people can still feel somewhat safe, and not have to worry about having our rights taken away, or getting beat up or killed by our fellow Americans. Sad that it should be so, here in 2022, almost 2023. Hopefully, we get through this period of civil unrest and political hatefulness, and finally decide that ALL Americans, no matter who or what you are, have the same and equal rights. However, it is mostly Florida and the Southern US, where LGBTQ people are apparently not welcome, from what I have seen, and they make it pretty clear, with the attitudes and policies in those states. Again, sad that it should be so in almost 2023. Thank you for this wonderful video of your SF tour, and thank you for allowing myself and others to input our thoughts and opinions.

Sorry about SCOTUS ruling. My heart is breaking for you. Someday soon for me. My country is gone.

The art deco toll booth at the Golden Gare Bridge are still there but toll collection is automated nowadays.

Reminds me the Steve McQueen movie Bullitt

It’s my hometown and the best city in my opinion ❤ I think it’s odd how people think the City should be able to take care of the unhoused when it’s a national problem and it’s getting worse. San Francisco is a compact, high-density city so obviously the issue in US society will be in your face. “Pride in where you live” only works for people who have the privilege. *Poverty is NOT a personal failure, it’s a dysfunctional system* Fortunately or unfortunately San Francisco is one of the few cities where being unhoused is not treated as a crime.

I understand what you mean about taking pride in where you reside. I work at a college University and have seen kids throw trash out their dorm window. I don't get it. It makes my blood boil.

Have you seen the bass videos of San Francisco and California in the mid century
