We still don’t have our bags this
morning so we get on the phone to our insurance company and use their
assistance service (from the very kind Dermott) to get some help in getting our
bags back. We are told we should have
them this afternoon so after a lovely breakfast in the B&B we head off into
town, to explore.
Union Street where our B&B is
located is full of lovely little individual and boutique shops so we spend a
bit of time wandering in and out of the shops and then make our way down to
Fisherman’s Wharf.
Again we spend some
time having a mooch about the shops here, in particular the Boudin Bakery which
has been baking their famous sourdough bread since 1849 Mrs M is impressed with some of the more
comedy shapes they are creating in the glass fronted bake house (lobsters,
crabs, crocodiles etc) and thinks I should get more creative with my bread when
we get back home.

As it’s a lovely sunny day we decide
to keep walking and head down along the different wharfs towards the Ferry
Building.
 |
| One way the Golden Gate Bridge |
 |
| The other the Bay Bridge |
After picking up our Alcatraz
tickets for tomorrow morning we stumble across a lovely farmers market and pick
up some homemade falafel, latkes and hummous for lunch which we have sat at the
end of a wharf.
We then catch a cab back to the
B&B where Mrs M is overcome with emotion upon seeing our bags sat waiting
for us.

It’s then extra long showers and
clean clothes all round and out for dinner to the amazing Rose’s Café across
the road. This is a lovely relaxed café
which serves the most amazing Italian food.
Mrs M has the pumpkin ravioli and Mr M the sausage and pancetta gnocci.
