Today we flew down the country to our final stop, San Francisco. Luckily we were able to check in at midday when we arrived, so we decided to take the train into the centre. San Francisco is an interesting city, very different to anywhere we have been in this trip. We got off the train […]

Our second day in San Fran was also all about exploring the area and seeing the more touristy parts of the city Today we decided to take the shuttle to the airport and catch the train from there. There are a number of public transport options, the train we were on today is called Bart. […]
