On our last full day in the city Sam and I started out from our north Panhandle apartment by going south through the park and up the hill to Haight and Ashbury. We walked down Haight all the way to Golden Gate Park where we rented bikes and headed to the Flower Conservatory.

After the conservatory we biked north again out of the park and into the city for lunch. We stopped at a Korean BBQ place before going back into the park and checking out the Science Museum.

When we left the museum we found out that the observation deck of the de Young was closing in ten minutes, so we ran across the street and made it just in time.

We then headed west through the park until we came to the Pacific Ocean.

We had to return the bikes in a few hours and figured it would be a large effort to pedal up the highway along the coast into the wind and sand around the edge of the city.  So, we turned around and took the northern paths through the park, stopping at the bison paddock and Chinese Pagoda.

Across the street from the bike rental was another Amoeba Music.  We thought Los Angeles’ was unique, but apparently not.

After dinner at Great Indian Food (it had been probably a year since I’d had paneer!)on Haight we walked up the panhandle and over to St. Ignacious before heading to Alamo Square for a night-time view of the city behind the painted ladies.
