Whale Flying

This thing is so beautiful!

I love whales. I haven't seen any. I haven't been on a boat to look for them. For some reason I have this idea that I must do this in the Boston area...

Boston being my favorite city on the East Coast, I guess that's my pretext to go back there!

General Hospital

From my car. With my phone.

A public hospital once saved my life. Or at least one of my kidneys. Not here. But still. I'm sure the people in this one have saved tons of people's kidneys. And lives...

This post is for them.

Wine Country

There are so many...

I haven't tried any of them pictured here.

I'm French. I don't play with food. Even less with wine...
My loss, no doubt!

Playing with words at the Exploratorium

I pick out 4 words : 2 red, 1 green and 1 yellow and I arrange them the way they say I should on the sign...

Truth came out!

Transamerica

'The Transamerica Pyramid is the tallest skyscraper in the San Francisco skyline' (dixit wikipedia.com) but that's not why it's my favorite building in SF.

I like the shape of it. It's so clever.

Just like I love the Flatiron of NYC.

Both majestically stand out from all the other bland buildings that surround them.

Yo Dog!

Another San Franciscan obsession... Dogs!

Morning Bliss

(N)Expresso with my husband around 7:30 in the morning sun on our patio...

Kids playing by our side. Ready to go! 30 minutes of bliss.

On the way to Folsom Street Fair

The fair is not really advertised on your mainstream media so I generally come across unexpectedly and unprepared...

In the end, my intelligent phone combined with a moving car did wonders!

Tattoo and Jasmine

"Hou, tabou
Mais ce mot est à vous
Son épaule est tattoo.
Tattoo est à moi,
Toute à moi."

Etienne Daho's poetic lines come to my mind when I see this sign :
Epaule Tatoo

Ooh, Taboo, 
This word really belongs to you, 
Her shoulder is tattooed, 
Tattoo is mine, 
All mine.

Shop for Chicks

Interesting 'window' display. To say the least. Perfect for the season...

Happy Easter!

(The display was in fact removed the very same day. I guess it freaked out a few people. The hen was stuffed though from far it looked pretty real).

Skull

I am not sure the owner of this vehicle means well with this red-eyed skull attached at the back of his truck...

If you have an explanation to what this means, please do tell!

Quiz

Who said : " Ignorance is the mother of all evils" ?
(Hint : He's French!)

These Monument Men are on (and in- I hope) the Mission Branch Library.

International Corner

I believe this photo perfectly summarizes what San Francisco is to me...

Will be perfect with Beckham in that corner!
:)

Give Peace a Chance

St Peter's Church has a message for you!

Memorial

Near the Legion of Honor.

Flying Horse

Sometimes you found gems by just looking up.

Having a kid obsessed with airplanes helps!

In Noe.
Somewhere.

A Photographer

That photographer has the same camera as me...

Top Mission

I wish I could go closer to check out the top of the Mission...

I have seen this architectural trait on top of another church. In the Sunset.

Lady Frida on Door

I still have to check out this lady's work...

I did find out some info that explains this San Franciscan infatuation. I guess I need to do a little stroll.

...
I even find a blog about her here : Frida in SF

St James #2

(detail)

A beautiful steeple with cable lines.
My camera does not allow me to take the whole thing in one shot!

Grandeur and Decadence

Old movie theater.

Stairway

I don't particularly like that building but all these lines are fun!

Collage

A fancy word that means gluing in French...

The best Garage Door of the city! (one of)

The Doors

Most of us don't think much of our garage door... Some people do though!

Here's a sample:

Adorned

Camouflaged

Transformed

Art up

I love these things so much.

Thanks to whoever does them.

My strolls in the city have a purpose...

St Patrick

I could have posted this one on the 18th of March... But no.

I walked past yesterday. Beautiful even in the rain!

I like this church : It is open and welcoming!
A rarity...

Great! And now I see a pony.
 :)

Guy in a Tree

Once again I have my wonderful daughter to thank for this one...

She's always on the lookout now and wants to take photos!

This post is for her.
