Fisherman's Wharf, San Francisco, California

Another hot spot of attractions for tourists here in San Francisco. There's not a lot to do here except for dining and shopping. But there is an aquar...

Fisherman's Wharf was really fun. Looked like a really great place for a family to hang out for probably the whole day. There was a free magic show geared towards kids, and plenty of restaurants and shops to keep you busy. Pier 39 had a space dedicated to sea lions so it was exceptionally fun to watch them basking in the sun and barking at each other. This is a great place to get a variety of tickets to Alcatraz or ferry to the Golden Gate bridge and around Alcatraz.

I Love watching the Sea lions, but I witnessed one of the ghastliest things here a few years ago. This pelican ate one of the smaller birds at the wharf! The kids watching were mortified! You know how big their mouths are. It just gobbled the whole thin...

I don't really get it, I mean, its like what San Francisco wants people to think it is like, to people who don't live there. The warf area is nothing like the mission, or soma, and not like the polk gulch at all. Is tha...
