Some photos

Just to prove I am really here... (Click on the photos to get a decent look.)

Me at the start of my ride across the Golden Gate Bridge:


Here is the view from Lombard Street to Telegraph Hill, and vice versa; a long way to walk on a hot day! (The things we do for love...)





Here is a fun sculpture at Millenium Park in Chicago. These screens are several storeys high and water cascades off all four sides. The front side changes every five minutes to show a video of a person's face. The person shows a range of rather happy expressions, and just before the screen changes into someone else the person purses their lips and water pours out on the people in the shallow pool between. On a hot day the children love it, and so did I...:







This Millennium Park sculpture is officially called 'Cloud Gate', but for some reason Chicagoans call it 'The Bean'...:



And finally, photographic proof that the cheese really is orange:

How cme you are wrapped up against a blizzard when in other photos people are wearing very litte??????

Too bad you didn't get your other ride in, or go on the boat trip.

I am really looking forward to hearing about Oak Park, plus your views of the scenery you pass through to get there.

Continue having fun.
