Wine tour update Thursday, our last day in San Francisco. Yesterday Bill and I went to AT&T park to see the San Francisco Giants play the Cincinnati Reds. We like baseball and it was a lovely afternoon for a game, but we also had fond memories of the garlic fries at what used to be called Pac Bell Park.  The fries were as good as we remembered, better than ones we’ve tried at other stadiums, and the Reds best the Giants.  

Meanwhile the rest of the crew went to the  Transit Museum to see how the cable cars worked.  For dinner we went to a highly rated Chinese restaurant up the hill from our hotel in Chinatown. The food was excellent but the acoustics were terrible making the room very noisy. Some restaurants must think that adds to the “buzz” but if you are trying to talk to people it’s just annoying. 


Today after walking along the piers and watching the sea lions we took one of the old cable cars up the hill and then walked from the last stop to the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, also known as SFMOMA.  We couldn’t get into the Magritte exhibit that opens in a few days but did enjoy what we saw.  The museum cafe had great lunch options which we were able to enjoy sitting outside on a terrace.  Then we split up for more adventures and some R&R before our final dinner.
