San Francisco Trip - Filbert Stairs      Photos by Jill Valeriote and David Wood


This wonderful excursion included a ferry ride from Vallejo, a walk up the Filbert Street steps through beautiful gardens, viewing vistas from Coit Tower, eating carry-out deli sandwiches in Washington Square, and visiting the Cable Car Museum.  All on an unusual beautiful sunny day in San Francisco.
