San Francisco at Night
In 2006, San Francisco had only two cruise piers. On our day of arrival, they were both busy with RCCL cruise ships. The sister ships Serenade of the Seas and Radiance of the Seas were in port, getting ready to head north to Alaska and their summer operations.
We had to wait for the Serenade to leave, so we could take up the secondary pier for a few hours. We took on about 1,000 more passengers and headed out that night. The logistics, and the chaos at the cruise pier prevented us from really enjoying San Francisco itself. What we did enjoy was a perfect day on the Bay. Rare is the day when the Golden Gate is clear of fog, and the sun shines on the beautiful City.
Just before we left, we were able to get some photos of the city at night. Very impressive. It was too dark to take any photos of our return back through the Golden Gate.
So began 4 1/2 days of crossing the Pacific to the Islands.
