Our Park (Washington Square)... is 5 minutes on foot from our flat. Here are a few exposures I took this afternoon. Most pet owners come here and walk their dogs, some folks are here to have a picnic time with friends and family; a number of yuppies eat their lunch in this park solo style; homeless folks conglomerate at noontime; the more liberated souls undress in their skimpy bikinis and trunks~ in celebration of the bright clouds above.
On Satudays, many college kids play volley ball and badminton from morning to noontime. Once a month, art exhibits are held here as well.
Washingston Square is the social place for everyone in this European neighborhood. It is also the arena where the Chinese oldies have found their turf to do their exercise for as early as 6 A.M. on a daily basis.
Husband and I come here regularly because we love looking at our city landscape where nature and people are in synch with each other.
Residential And Commercial Buildings
Victorian architecture is what your eyes would feast on once you step into the streets of San Francisco and apart from the cable cars that never fails to intrigue the tourists, it's these buildings that make San Francisco uniquely charming in its own way. Photos here are taken in my North Beach neighborhood...see Coit Tower on the left, this is one of the icons of Little Italy (it looks like a cigarette amid the Victorian residential buildings)...
Saints Peter and Paul Church & Union (Main Street)
