"The morning fog may chill the air, I don't care, My love waits there in San Francisco" These additional lines of the very famous Tony Bennett song says what many of us have the joy of experiencing on a regular basis if we live or work in San Francisco. I love this City, I've grown up here and have been very fortunate to have such an opportunity. As I stroll through downtown, it's just a flurry of activity: sailors on shore leave and Blue Angels soaring above during Fleet Week, we've got city blocks shutdown to accommodate the masses as they attend Oracle World, 49er fans preparing to head to the Stick (aka Candlestick Park) to see the match up against the Atlanta Falcons, and the hoards of tourists just enjoying our City.
Like a phoenix, this City rose from the ashes of the infamous 1906 Earthquake & Fire to be a cherished destination for tourists and natives alike. Wondering about SF, I can't help but have a smile on my facem when I'm walking, because I see it on everyone's face how much they enjoy our City, I say "when I'm walking" because sometimes when I'm driving these same tourists can be a bit trying (no matter how great they're for our local economy). Thank you for visiting our City, but can you please jump into a cab?
