We bought a one day muni pass and took the #30 bus to the exploratorium. Despite my peaceful presence, I was hated by the bus driver. My first offense was called out when my size 10 feet where (not) in the way of a wheelchaired passenger attempting to exit. Imagine my horror when the feisty bus driver got out of her seat and said "mam,your feet are going to be in the way ... Stand up and move outta the way." A few stops later an apparently I am the one in the way again ..."mam you are going to hafta move...those seats (plural...mind you not just my seat) are reserved for the handicapped and elderly!" I get up and move to the back of the bus all the while thinking of the irony. And next stop was end of line. We arrive to the exploritorium which is actually set in a quite breathtaking place. Much better that the science museum...spent a few hours in there having a lot of fun.
The plan was to take the bus back to Van Ness and walk up Lombard street to Kyle's delight and my cardic exhaustion. Then take the cable car to Nob Hill and walk back to the Cable Car Museum. But after having a few full cars pass us by, we walked down Lombard back to the hotel...and wouldn't you know it...it was happy hour. We talked to so folks in from Austria who were on there way to San Diego tomorrow. Then had a bakery tour at Boudiin's followed by dinner. Back at the hotel now and feeling very tired.

Visiting SF as a tourist is really great. You southern californians can really appreciate all of the exciting locations and scenery. It's hard to take it in in just a couple of days. See you later today.
