San Francisco Photos – Stock Pictures Of San Francisco

A fun afternoon can be had if you spend it at the Cartoon Art Museum here in San Francisco. For something a little different than spending it one of the bigger museums in town try it at the Cartoon Art Museum. There are permanent exhibits and traveling temporary exhibits so you might catch something really fun like the Beetle Bailey and Batman exhibits that are running currently. For adults it only costs 7 dollars so its a great deal and you are supporting cartoons. What more could you ask for?

It was a nice sunny day two Saturdays ago – well the sun came out quite late so it was nice to head to Ocean Beach and lay around at the beach and watch the passersby. Came across the footsteps on the sand so it was definitely worth shooting several pics of them.

You can take the 38 bus all the way from downtown San Francisco – well near Union Square take it at the corner of Geary and Powell streets and in about 40 minutes you’ll be at the complete other end of San Francisco and if it’s a nice day you’ll have a nice, laidback day at the beach.
