Riding the Cable Car in San Francisco CA

San Francisco has Cable Cars that are like the old style street cars except that they can climb the really steep hills. It was a sunny day and we hopped on the Cable Car at Market Street and rode it all the way past Chinatown. The conductor was pretty funny and in all it made for an authentic San Francisco Cable Car experience!

At Epplers Bakery in San Francisco we enjoyed two large slices of warmed up Apple Pie and some sparkling apple juice as we sat in the sunny patio and watched the street cars driving by. The apple pie had a flaky crust and was made with lots of cinnamon. San Francisco has some great food! The apple pie was only around $3.00.

See you next time!
