Yerba Buena Gardens, San Francisco




Thursday: Lunch in San Francisco with Marilyn, at Mo’s in Yerba Buena Gardens. The view was outstanding, but they’ve inconsiderately planted trees right in front of the balconey, blocking my photo attempts. Had to wander down towards the play area to get the full skyline expanse.

Yerba Buena Gardens is also home to the "historic Charles Looff Carousel." According to the website, "This beautifully hand carved Carousel was built in 1906 and was formerly the Carousel from Playland-at-the-Beach where it ran from 1912 to 1972. In 1998, it was purchased by the City of San Francisco, fully restored and brought to Yerba Buena Gardens."
