San Francisco... dum, dum, dummmm

So, Sarah and I decided to go to San Francisco this Saturday to escape the heat. Sacramento got to about 106 degrees and SF got to about 80 with a cool breeze. We went to the Ferry Building Market and saw a lot of cool stuff and had a mint shake to keep us cool. Parking was $8 when we got there; about an hour and a half later, when we returned to our car, they had increased the price to $10. Good thing we got there early.
Later, we went to the Golden Gate Park and visited the de Young museum. It was the grand opening of some exhibit and we got in for free; normally it is $10 per person. We had a turkey sandwich there for lunch and it cost $10; it was just bread, turkey, lettuce and cheese and so not worth $10.
Then we got lost trying to leave SF and ended up in the Castro district. We realized that the driving conditions for SF are set up so that if it is dangerous and could cause accidents, it's legal. If you need to turn around or go left, it's illegal. We do like some things about SF, but we realized that it is more stressful than relaxing going there. Driving conditions are always horrible--$3 to get in and $3 to get out, parking is near impossible to find, and when you do it is expensive, lots of people who are mostly smelly, and it's not visitor friendly. We remembered that the last time we went there we had more bad experiences than good, so we have decided that we will not be back for at least five years.
We also saw "Lady in The Water" with Becky and John; Sarah and I we hoping for a twist at the end like usual, but no. It was hard to enjoy the movie because there were a lot of talkers, cell phones ringing and random loud laughter.
