Plans changed a bit in San Francisco. We arrived at 4:30am after driving through the night. We made our way downtown to see where we needed to go to get on a tour of Alcatraz. All of our stops we researched before this trip. But we didn’t want to buy too many tickets or reserve hotels in case something happened that set us back. We found out when we got there that tickets to see Alcatraz are sold out weeks in advance.
Then, we had to decide if we were going to wait for the trolley system to open to ride a trolley. We didn’t want to wait so we decided to drive the city ourselves and just use this as an opportunity to get ahead of schedule.

Known as The Painted Ladies, the pics below may look familiar. They are the houses featured in the opening credits of the original Full House series.
Videos of us going up and down the steep streets. One of them is one of the steepest in the U.S. with a 17.5% gradient.
