First Full day in San Francisco

We arrived in San Francisco about 3:30 local time. We managed to miss our plane in Atlanta and had to catch a later flight. We rode the BART train from the airport to the Powell Street station. The weather on arrival was rainy. We really didn't get wet accept to get from our terminal to the Airtran which is the train transportation within the airport. If we knew our way around the airport, we might have avoided this rain. Our hotel, the Powell is the best location for us in San Francisco. It is next to the Powell street station. It is also at the end of the cablecar line. It is also a block off of Union Square.

We are still planning a "chill" vacation. We don't have firm plans to do anything. We can do this without feeling too guilty about missing attactions because we have seen almost everything on prior trips. The weather forcast isn't very encouraging. This morning is beautiful but rain is forcast for this afternoon.

We ate at Tad's steakhouse last night. It was the only thing open on Christmas. It was very good. We just had a burger and ham sandwich.

Coffee this morning was at Starbuck's. The prices were the same as the Barnes and Noble in Columbus!
