Funfilled Saturday

Make a guess of where we went today.

Yes, we were on our way to Fisherman's wharf, which is one of the attractions in San Francisco. To reach there, we had to first take the BART(Bay Area Rapid Transit) to Embarcadero and then transfer to the streetcar F. Today, Our little girl was introduced to two forms of public transport, the train and the streetcar.

Mommy is surprised to find that the design of the station control and the train are very similar to that in Singapore.

There are different types of streetcars found in San Francisco.

Mommy loves this design the best.

Finally, we reached Pier 39 at Fisherman's wharf. Rows of shops and restaurants at Pier 39.

Our little girl was attracted to the merry-go-round and off she went, round and round with daddy.

Next, we took a walk at the pier. The view was spectacular.

Right across the sea is the famous Alcatraz Island which was used to be a military prison. According to daddy, nobody has ever escaped from the prison. It also housed the first lighthouse on the West Coast of the United States that was built to guide ships safely into San Francisco Bay during the Gold Rush.

It's time for some snacks. Well, we did not forget the pigeons as well.


Mommy loves the view of the yachts that were parked at the pier.

Our little girl spotted her favourite place (a playground) while we were walking alog the pier.

Lunch was the clam chowder soup served in San Francisco sourdough French bread and seafood platter.

After lunch, we went to the world famous sea lion viewing gallery. We did not see just one, but lots of sea lions basking in the sun.

From the wharf, we could also see the Golden Gate Bridge, a famous landmark of SA.


The last stop was the Aquarium of the Bay to catch a glimpse of the the rich aquatic life that lies below the surface of the San Francisco Bay and its surrounding waters.

Our little girl was completely mesmerized by sharks, rays, jelly fish and other aquatic creatures in the underwater tunnels.

We also had a chance to touch some of sea creatures like star fish, sea urchin and sea cucumbers.

It was funfilled day at fisherman's wharf. Our little girl was completely exhausted at the end of the day.She had an early night, so mommy had the chance to put up this post, fresh from the oven today.
