After a long day yesterday (and with age becoming a serious factor!) it was nice to have a sleep-in this morning with breakfast at noon! Afterwards took the shuttle to the BART station for a quick trip under the bay to San Francisco.  Since there was nothing cultural or otherwise I wanted to do I opted for a couple of hours checking out the shops while George sunned himself in Union Sq opposite Macy's.  

Mid afternoon, on the way to the Sporting Club for a beer (for a well earned thirst!!! ) we walked along Stockton St where the new tunnel is being built for a 1.7 mile line from Brannan St to Chinatown.  This tunnel is expected to be finished in 2018 at a cost of $1.8 billion. It is extremely deep, running below the existing lines and it is a snapshot of what we can expect when they start the new Metro tunnel in Melbourne.  Not a pretty sight.  

Had a steak for dinner at Tad's Steakhouse - George reminded me that we first ate at Tad's 42 years ago and other than the price I don't think too much has changed!  I reckon the furniture is still the same and the old guys doing the grilling look ancient like us.   Still very tasty though.  

Home on the ferry, had to sit indoors as it was very cool and we wished we'd taken jackets.  The days are beautiful but SF always provides a nice breeze and at night a very cold one!!!
