North Beach

Filbert St, North Beach, San Francisco, CA, the church shown is the St. Peter and Paul church. I took a photo similar to this one on a cloudier day. Photo credit: Daniel Schwen.

The Stinking Rose

The Stinking Rose is a San Francisco Icon- or tourist trap, depending on who you listen to.

San Francisco street view

St. Peter and Paul Church.

St. Peter and Paul church is located in north beach. This picture is across Washington Park, it looks a bit crooked, but there is of course a hill. It is a neat neighborhood to explore. The cafeteria is closed has many more pictures of the church.

A pay toilet

Believe it or not it costs only 25 cents and usually clean.

St. Peter and Paul Church.

The large white building is the St. Peter and Paul Church in the North Beach neighborhood, San Francisco, California. You can see Russian Hill in the background. The North Beach is a nice neighborhood to walk around in. You can learn more at Uncle Tom's Blog Cabin, The Tomfoolery of a Seminarian, and Varieties of Unreligious Experience. All very good posts, not like the usual tripe linked from this blog.

City Lights, San Francisco.

City Lights bookstore is a nice place to spend an hour or so.

Washington Square.

This is the Ben Franklin statue in Washington Square in the North Beach neighborhood in San Francisco. You can see Coit Tower in the background. Washington square is on the Barbary coast trail, it is a nice place to visit if you're in town and quite a few restaurants are in the area. More pictures of Washington Square can be found here.
