Today I was treated to a virtual trip to the beautiful city of San Francisco via the video created for the treadmill user to watch while he or she walks.
There were all kinds of sidewalks lined with planted areas filled with flowers, shrubs and trees, plus brick walkways close to the ocean, plus humongous buildings creating a nice skyline.
The Ferry Building had a bunch of people walking toward it. We got close, then turned and walked in another direction.
One area was a grouping of obviously expensive apartment houses or condo buildings on Lombard Street with a curving, winding red brick ‘roadway’ up a hill to shops at the top. People walked down, rolled down on what I think were Segways, plus cars slowly made their way down to the road below. Attractive flower beds were dotted all around, making a beautiful statement.
I walked down several streets, all seemingly making their way down to the water below, where Alcatraz could be seen in the distance. Cable cars made their way in both directions. I saw the Fisherman’s Wharf sign, but we turned and walked in a different direction. I was glad I was walking flat on the treadmill, rather than attempting to walk up the hills shown in the video!
