    I remember a visit to San Francisco when a friend and I made our own “Vertigo” tour. Visited a lot of the locations where Hitchcock filmed. Mission Dolores, Palace of the Legion of Honor, Fort Point, etc… Big Fun! Nice way to see the city. Can't wait to see more! ❤️ Paul

      Hi Paul, that does sound like a really unique way to see the city, or any city where a classic movie has been filmed. Love it. Thanks for sharing that fun memory with us! :-)

    My family visited there during a month-long summer camping trip from Indiana to California round trip in 68 when I was 12…I remember my dad being so anxious to drive down the famous winding Lombard Street…thx for the memories, dad…and Steve!

      Hi William, that is awesome! Thank you for sharing that fun memory with us. Mason and I walked down the crooked Lombard Street and I think it was easier than driving lol.😆 of course I also filmed it and I will be sharing that video too in the next couple of weeks! 😄👍

    Hello Steve and Mason! 30 yrs. ago was the last time I visited San Fran. I was 17 years-old then, Now I'm 47. Some of my family members live in Fremont. Great video. Have lots of fun. Most importantly, Stay safe out there.

    I always got a good deal traveling home from Mississippi to Kansas through Expedia. Your hotel sounds ideal and I'll try and remember to look into it the next time I travel to SFRAN. Being in the middle of the country its always expensive traveling even by air. I love to drive but that distance would be tiring at my age. Thanks again for sharing and so nice to see you two bonding. I'd wished I'd had someone growing up sensitive to my thoughts and issues. Still, life sent me in a different direction, marriage and divorce, but no regrets being a parent (my daughters still very close and supportive).

    Used to take my kids to SF every year as our Christmas gift, and while "it's been a minute" as my son would say I really miss the city. We would usually stay in south SF by the airport, take the hotel shuttle back-and-forth to the airport, take BART in and have fun. Golden Gate Park is a must, probably my favorite urban park. Glad you and Mason are getting this time together in one of my favorite places.

    The Comfort Inn looked like a great choice, clean and offering a simple breakfast early plus it was a great price. Since I lived on the other side of the Bay, I never stayed overnight in SF. Looking forward to seeing more of your trip! Oh yea, parking is always expensive there but having a protected garage was probably worth it!

    Always played them on my trip to S.F

    How funny, yesterday I was just planning my !ate August trip to SF and was looking at a few mote!s on Lombard! I picked that area because of its proximity to the cemetery and bridge walk. I grew up in the bay area so I like to visit once in awhile. I watched a video last night where some guy really bashed the city so glad you posted a pleasant visit, thank you❤

    • @theretiredlifewithsteve

      Hi Maxine, this was the first time I visited the San Francisco national cemetery. It was just down the street from our hotel. It was awesome to be able to walk everywhere from our hotel. But because we went so many places, it was nice that we could just hop on the bus or the subway or the cable cars when we wanted to. The metro pass for the day was only five dollars to ride any of the public transportation that you wanted to all day long. A fantastic deal. We had an amazing trip. I hope you do too! 😄👍

    Darn parking in San Francisco (remember when Danielle Steel the author was trying to buy her neighbors parking spaces 🥺). The breakfast bars are good for danish & cereal 👍. A nice breakfast sandwich would have been good and quick from the cool bar. Good price for San Francisco 👍👍🤠

      That’s the only thing I don’t like about large cities. Parking is always such a hassle. I’m glad I was able to just leave my car in the parking lot for the four days we were there. 👍

    I stayed in at a Comfort inn in Philadelphia when I went to visit family and the breakfast they had was the same you had. It was yummy but the elevator was broken and I was on the third floor, had to get one of the employees to carry down my luggage at 1 in the morning to head to airport. Poor guy looked like they woke him up out of bed.

    Yes...Skyline was definitely a climb! It actually is pretty similar to most of the hikes that start in my town in Colorodo; with the exception of warmth and lack of shade hehehe. Beautiful views though!!
    Our timing is lucky. July is military appreciation month on the gondola. So, we will take my aunt up there tomorrow ; free for me and 25% off for my guests.

    The Golden Gate National Cemetery is actually in San Bruno which is near the San Francisco Air Port which is not in San Francisco... I am so confuzed... San Francisco is actually a county and the San Francisco County Jail is in San Mateo County. You are already aware the San Francisco cemeteries have all been moved to the city of Colma. There is still a columbarium and a couple graves at the Presidio and Mission Dolores in San Francisco. I have so much trivial information... I spend much too much time on line.
