San Jose California, August 2005
Went to San Jose for work, got to do a bit of sight seeing around the place, spent some time in Monterey and a day and a half in San Francisco.
The 18th at Pebble Beach!

View from the hotel room window. Planes fly into San Jose (the airport is almost in the middle of town). You can see a plane coming on the left hand side of the photo.Monterey Beach near the wharf.A colony of sea lions live under the Fisherman's Wharf in Monterey. Occasionally one would come out to see if someone was throwing food their way.
Trawler in the harbour.Little beach along 17 Mile Drive between Monterey and Carmel.The Lone Cypress along 17 Mile Drive. This tree has survived out there all by itself for ages and is the official symbol of Pebble Beach.
Little squirrel type character.The 18th at Pebble Beach!The wonderful Golden Gate Bridge. The fog was amazing the first day we were here, couldn't see a thing.
Muir Woods, north of San Francisco. Pretty cool little valley that has these massive trees, some over 1,000 years old. Apparently the whole California coast was covered in these things, and this little area is one of the old surviving places you can find them now. (It was too hard to get them out of the valley.)Mikey and Andrew. Another (non) view of the Golden Gate Bridge.
View from the top of Lombard Street - the wacky curved road.View of the bay from up near Coit Tower. You can almost kind of see Alcatraz behind the flag.Coit Tower.
View from the top of Coit Tower.Better view from the top of Coit Tower, out into the bay.View of the actual city.
Sitting in the double-decker train on the way up to San Francisco from San Jose.San Francisco from the ground.The famous San Francisco cable cars.
Singularly the most impossible bridge to photograph.
