Today the plan was to wake up early and attend a prayer service at a church that Melanie had heard about. Well, the waking up early part didn't really work out, what can we say it was our vacation, so we slept in some and then got up and just went to see the church. It is called St. Gregory Episcopal church and it is the home church of an author whose book Mel read.
After the church we headed over to Haight Ashbury and walked around some. This was a more strange area of San Francisco with a rich hippy history and lots of colorful scenery. We went in a bookstore, but had trouble deciding what to do next, so we hopped on a bus and headed back to our side of town. Since it was our last full day, we decided to revisit the delectable Sears Fine foods for brunch. By the time we got to the trolley we realized that the weekend must have been coming because there was now a line at the trolley. We almost missed the breakfast window at Sears, but we did end up making it. And again, it was yummy!!!!!
After Sears we took the trolley back up to Lomard street. The famous Lomard street is a brick street that winds around and down like a bunch of S's put together and most of the year is filled with beautiful beds of flowers.
After Lomard we made our way up to Telegraph Hill and Coit tower. It was getting dark and a storm was coming up, so we didn't spend much there, but it was a pretty view of the city.
Coit tower is the tall object in the top right of the photo. 
This is a view of the city as a storm came through, it turned out pretty good I think. 
So, this is a toilet at the top of Telegraph Hill and you press a button and the door slides open. I thought it was neat and was going to use it, but it was GROSS!!!!! ha oh well.
We went back to the hotel after Coit tower and decided we wanted to have another round of yummy Italian! We went to a place we had first eyed in North beach the first night we walked around there. It is called Panterei. It was yummy, but the other place had better gnocchi.
And then to top off the night we went to a different Italian pastry shop! We got coffee and pastries and it was wonderful!
