If and when you go to San Francisco, you will most probably include Fisherman's Wharf in your list of places to visit. I can no longer count how many times I have visited it. It must be in the hundreds. Despite this though, I still cannot help but be amazed by the entire place. IT is very touristy alright but it does have its merits.

It was in 1989 when I first came here. I was on a two week break from my graduate studies in Madrid and my mom was my guide. What to do in the wharf? Eat crabs, fried calamari, and clam chowder. Watch the seals at Pier 39. Board a ferry to visit the Island of Alcatraz.
